Gavhle (??????)

When I was a kid, my grandmother used to make Gavhle and I would also join her in that. It used to take hours for us to prepare these, but still it was a fun activity. Gavhlyachi Kheer is usually prepared and served during weddings as a good omen.

Gavhle may also be referred as the Indian version of hand made pasta. It is believed that Gavhle has got its name after the shape of wheat grain known as 'Gahu' (which is the Wheat grain) in Marathi. It is also known as 'Valvat' in few homes.

As per my knowledge, there are 5 types of Gavhale, viz. Gavhale, Maaltya, Fanole, Mohor and Nakhole 

Ingredients :
?  cup fine Semolina
? cup Maida (all purpose flour)
1 spoon ghee (sajuk toup)
A pinch of Salt
Milk

Preparation :
Mix Semolina and Maida in a bowl.
Add ghee to it.
Add only that much quantity of milk which is required to knead the batter with dry consistency.
Keep it aside for 2 -3 hours.
Again knead the batter.
Make gavhle by giving fine rice-like shape to the batter. (It should look like fine rice grain)
Dry the Gavhle under fan and not under the Sun. (It releases bad odour if dried under Sun)
You may preserve gavhle in refrigerator for many days

Notes : 
1. Kheer or Sakharbhaat can be prepared by using Gavhle.
2. It is also made with Maida (All purpose flour) only 
3. If the dough becomes dry then knead it with the help of few drops of water / milk
