Makhan Bada is a traditional dessert originating from the Indian subcontinent.[2] It is also known as Balusaahi and is similar to a glazed doughnut in terms of Ingredients, but differs in texture and taste. Makhan Bada also resembles Rajasthani Baati in terms of size & preparation but resembles more with Medu Vada in terms of shape. In South India, a similar pastry is known as badusha.

Preparation

[edit]

Makhan Badas are made of maida flour, and are deep-fried in clarified butter and then dipped in sugar syrup.[3][4]
