Bellam GAVVALU

Bellam Gavvalu is a traditional South Indian sweet snack made from rice flour and jaggery (Bellam). The dough is prepared by mixing rice flour, jaggery, and a little water to form a smooth, pliable texture. The dough is then shaped into small, round, shell-like shapes resembling “conchs” (gavvalu) and deep-fried until golden and crispy. Once fried, they are soaked in a jaggery syrup, which gives them a rich, sweet flavor. Bellam Gavvalu is a popular treat during festivals like Sankranti or Ugadi, offering a delightful combination of sweetness, crunch, and traditional flavors that appeal to all ages.
