Fetua is a winter delicacy from North India. In Varanasi it’s called Magdal as it is made from moong dal. But the Mirzapur version is made from urad dal. The name Fetua comes from beating the urad dal.

This sweet has longer shelf life as there is no water or milk added to it. Urad dal helps protect heart, good for skin and hair, improves bone health. Chef enhances the taste by adding kesar, cardamom and dry fruits which also aides in oral health, blood purification and not to mention the delicious taste.
