Sweet Rose Flower Recipe | Rose Cookies Recipe
Sweet rose flower recipe is one of the Sankranti recipes from Andhra cuisine. Learn how to make a thin, crisp and sweet rose flower recipe with our step by step image instructions along with tips and a video.
Telugu-speaking people call it gulabi puvvulu as this recipe is made with flower-shaped rose cookie mould. People often make this recipe by adding eggs to all-purpose flour batter as it binds and gives a crisp texture.
We can also make this recipe with rice flour as the main ingredient and to give it binding property we need to add 1-2 tbsp. of maida along with eggs. In our previous case we can add banana paste but adding banana may make our recipe dark.
Tips to make the perfect sweet rose flower recipe:
- To get the perfect taste we need to maintain a 2:1 ratio of maida and sugar.
- We can add eggs or banana paste to the batter to get a crispy texture.
- If you are a non-vegetarian I prefer adding the egg so that we can have a nice binding and crispy texture.
- When you are using a mould for the first time, it’s a good idea to keep it in oil from the beginning till the oil heats up.
- If possible try to borrow mould from your friend as the used mould behaves as a greased item and batter comes faster than new mould.
- Let the mould get heated in oil so that when mould is put in a batter, it sticks to the mould or else the batter doesn’t stick properly.
- After cooking the rose flour recipe in oil for 10-15 seconds try to remove it from the mould using a thin rod or a fork so that it can be deep fried in oil.
- Do not dip the mould in the batter fully, if the batter sticks on the upper layer of mould it becomes hard to remove in oil.

1. In a mixing bowl add 2 bowls of maida/all-purpose flour and 1 bowl of sugar in a 2:1 ratio. Add salt and cardamom powder.
2. Mix all ingredients and pour the required water to make a thick batter. Mix thoroughly making sure there are no lumps. Keep aside for 10-15 minutes so that flour absorbs water and turns soft.
3. Heat oil in a pan. Mix the batter well with the help of a fork.
4. On another side put rose flour mould in hot oil so that the batter sticks to it. Once the oil is ready, put a rose flour mould spoon in the batter and transfer it to the oil immediately.
Tip: Using a thin rod try to remove edges so that batter gets released from the mould.

6. Repeat this process until all rose flower recipe is done. Store in an air-tight container only when they are cooled or else the whole recipe loses its crispiness.
