Dahi Gujiya is another variation to Dahi Bhalla or Dahi Vade. Specialty of these Dahi Guijiyas is that these gujiyas are stuffed with chopped nuts and khoya or sugar. These gujiyas are made during festivals specially Holi in Uttar pradesh. Dahi Gujiyas are little tricky to make but little patience will help you get tasty and perfect vadas. I did mess up with few initially but later on got them in perfect shape.
So these delicacies from Uttar Pradesh goes to day 25 of Mega Marathon theme " Sweets and Snacks".

Beautifully presented , i am really fond of these gujiyas . I have been making these since years now , so never messed up . True you need to get the hang of it .
Beautiful presentation, Sushma. They look simply stunning. Love the rose petal garnish.
Rose petals are making the gujiyas in yogurt base stand out. Lovely presentation.
So nicely done Sushma, love your presentation!
Awesome presentation Sushma. My friend gave me the tip of kneading the batter which helped me in making them.
Perfect dahi gujiya and very tempting pictures.
