Walk into any Indian sweet shop and you'll find rows of colourful mithais competing for attention. There are laddoos, jalebis, rasgullas and countless regional favourites. Yet among them sits a sweet that has quietly built a loyal fan base of its own, dodha barfi.
Rich, chewy and packed with flavour, dodha barfi has become a favourite across generations. What many people don't know, however, is that this famous sweet was reportedly created by a Punjabi wrestler more than a century ago.
