Balushahi, also known as Badusha, is a classic Indian confection prepared using maida (refined flour), ghee, and sugar syrup. The dough is shaped into round discs with a slight indentation, then deep-fried at controlled temperatures to develop a crispy outer layer and soft, layered interior. Unlike fully soaked sweets, Balushahi features a light sugar glaze coating, giving it a mildly crunchy exterior and a rich, melt-in-mouth texture inside. It is commonly flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts like almonds or pistachios, enhancing both taste and visual appeal.
