HAPPY UGADI ……
Wishing everyone a happy Chandramana Ugadi festival ! Wishing you all a happy celebration !
Make Ugadi habba more special with this yummy, delicious, mouth watering, easy to make, fruit stuffed holige ie sebu hannina holige or apple puran poli – which needs no grinding !
I tried this apple puran poli or sebu hannina holige during the deepavali festival in 2024, and since then I have been making it
One of the yummiest desert made using a fruit. If you notice I have sweetened this holige with powdered red rock sugar, which is said to be minimally processed unrefined sweetener, compared to highly processed, chemically bleached nutrients lack refined white sugar
For the outer layer we can use only wheat flour or more amount of wheat flour and less chiroti rave or equal amount of wheat flour and chiroti rave or only chiroti rave or more amount of chiroti rave and less wheat flour etc etc. Therefore even I keep changing the combinations and proportions
This is the 22nd type of holige/puran poli post and till now I have posted twenty one (21) types of holige recipes, you can check the recipe of all the types by clicking on the name. I have even made a separate category for holige/Puran Poli here on my blog

PROCEDURE :

- Cover and let it sit for 30 to 40 minutes or until you prepare the stuffing and it gets cooled completely






- Now heat 1 tbsp ghee, put sesame seeds, poppy seeds and cumin seeds powder, when roasted put grated apple and roast the apple until moisture evaporates
