Dilkush/Sweetened Stuffed Pastry


2015 is going to an end,I wanted to end the Bake-A-Thon series and this year with a sweet note.So tried this simple Dilkush.
Dilkush is a popular snack available in most of the bakeries and college canteen in South India.Two varieties are available in the bakery one is with the puff pastry and another one is made with the yeasted bread dough.
Already I have shared a version of Thengai Bun so tried this one with the puff pastry.Here I made two dilkush,for the first one I rolled the dough slightly thinner,so the output was flaky.Whereas the other is comparatively thicker dough,so it got a nice crust.Off to the recipe........................
