Ghevar (घेवर) or honey comb dessert is an Indian delicacy from the Rajasthani cuisine, made on Festivals in monsoon season like Teej and Rakhsha Bandhan. It is a round plate-shaped sweet approximately 8 – 10 inch in width, which is made from ghee/oil, flour and sugar syrup. There are many varieties of Ghevar such as Plain, Mawa / Rabri and malai Ghevar. You will find this dessert in monsoon season in almost every sweet shop in Rajasthan, UP and Delhi part of India. But if you are in a foreign country, then its really difficult for you to find this sweet.

Struggling to find this for last so many years, I decided to give it a try at home. Believe me, with a little effort I was able to relish it finally after so many years.
