Jibe Gaja is a traditional Bengali fried food or dessert. Jibe literally means tongue and gaja means fried pastry. This is a sinful delight prepared during festive occasions and this is also served as prasad in 'The Jagannath Temple of Orissa'. So it is famous both in West Bengal and Orissa. The flour is kneaded with lots of ghee or white oil and then rolled, layered with more ghee to create layers. Deep fried and then dipped in a thick sugar syrup to create these sinfully delicious fried goodies. It is a bit fattening but you can treat yourself once in a while.
wow! they are really tongue shaped and look so yummy :D
