Ghevar or Ghewar is a disc-shaped Rajasthani sweet[1] with a honeycomb-like texture, made from ghee, maida, and sugar syrup.[2] It is traditionally associated with the month of Shraavana and the festivals of Teej and Raksha Bandhan.[3][4] It is a part of Rajasthani tradition and is gifted to newly married daughter on Sinjara, the day preceding Gangaur and Teej.[5] It is also one of the Chhapan Bhog (56 dishes) served to the Lord Krishna.[6] Besides Rajasthan, it is also famous in the adjoining states of Haryana, Delhi, Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh. Ghevar is exported to foreign countries, too.
Ghevar is savoured by masterchef Sanjeev Kapoor, too. Ghevar made its way into the coveted MasterChef Australia when Depinder Chhibber served the sweet in audition round of Season 13.[7]
