About Badusha
Badusha, also known as Balushahi, is a popular Indian sweet treat often enjoyed during festivals and celebrations. It belongs to the category of deep-fried desserts and has a flaky texture with a mildly sweet taste. Made primarily from wheat flour, ghee, and yogurt, the dough is shaped into rings or discs and fried until golden brown. It is then soaked in sugar syrup, which gives it its characteristic sweetness and shiny coating. Originating from Indian cuisine, Badusha bears resemblance to Middle Eastern and South Asian sweets like the Turkish baklava. While ghee and yogurt provide a dose of fats and probiotics, its high sugar content and deep-frying make it calorie-dense and less suitable for frequent consumption. Moderation is key when indulging in this delightful confection, which is best enjoyed as a festive treat rather than a regular snack.
