Ingredients

• Besan (Gram flour)  : 1/2 cup
• Ghee : 1 cup
• Oil : 1/4 cup
• Sugar : 1 & 1/2 cup
• Sugar for sprinkling : 1 tblsp

Method

• Sift the flour to get rid of the lumps.
• Place sugar in a heavy bottomed pan, with water enough to immerse it. Say 1 cup of water.
• Boil until 1 string consistency. Keep the flame in medium when the syrup is nearing its stage. Swipe the back of the ladle you use in the syrup for checking. (This is important)
• Add the flour slowly stirring continuously, Mix until smooth. The flame should always be on medium heat.
• Mix and keep oil and ghee ready. Start adding ghee slowly and add continuously like 2-3 tbsp at a time. Keep stirring until the ghee mixes and then add the next batch of ghee and repeat until you finish the ghee.
• At one stage, the the color changes to pale and frothy here and there, so be alert at this time and lastly the whole mixture gets froth,  Also there will be a pleasant smell of besan with ghee.
• Pour it to the greased aluminium foil tray and level it with a spatula. Wait until its slightly warm, and cut into desired shape. Let it cool down completely before transferring to the container.
