🍯 What is Madatha Kaja?

Madatha Kaja (also called Tapeswaram Kaja) is a traditional Andhra sweet originating from Kakinada and Tapeswaram in East Godavari district. 'Madatha' means folded in Telugu — the dough is folded and laminated multiple times with ghee before frying, creating dozens of paper-thin layers. After frying, it's soaked in sugar syrup for the classic crispy-outside, soft-inside texture.
