Explanation

Thekua is a traditional sweet dish that originated in the state of Jharkhand, India. It is a popular snack during festivals and special occasions.
Thekua is typically made by mixing wheat flour, jaggery (unrefined cane sugar), ghee (clarified butter), and a variety of spices such as cardamom, fennel seeds, and cloves. The mixture is then shaped into small flat discs and deep-fried until golden brown.
Thekua has a crispy texture and a sweet and aromatic flavor. It is often served with tea or as a dessert after a meal. The dish is not only popular in Jharkhand but also in other neighboring states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.
