Remove the vessel from heat.
Divide the mixture into 2 equal parts.
To one part add few drops of green food colouring and half of the cardamom powder.

Lightly grease a deep metal plate.
Place the green mixture in this.

Now place the vessel containing the remaining portion on medium flame.

Stir to get a nice yellow colour.
While stirring, add the remaining cardamom powder.
Spread this on the green layer in the plate.
Make the mixture even and smooth with the back of a spoon.
Spread 1 or 2 edible silver foil papers on top to add to its beauty.
Once well set, cut into squares or diamond shapes.
