• Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 10

• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup besan (chick-pea flour)
• 2 cups ghee

Directions:

1. Sift the gram flour and keep ready. Dissolve sugar in the water over low heat and once it dissolves, increase the heat, bring to a boil and cook till it reaches a one-thread consistency(the syrup needs to be real thick u cud take a blob n press it between ur thumb n indexfinger n pull apart slowly if it forms a thread ur consistency is reached).
2. Add a tablespoon of gram flour and stir to mix well. Continue till all the gram flour is added, a tablespoon at a time.
3. Add the ghee, one tablespoon a time till all of it is used. The color and texture will change by now. It will get more brown and crumbly.
4. Set in a greased plate or thali, patting to level. Do not remove ghee that may float on top, pat it back. Cool, cut and serve.
