METHOD
Heat ½ cup ghee in a thick bottom pan .
Once hot , lower the flame .
Add the besan and mix well .
Stir continously and fry till golden on medium flame . [ 12 mins ].
First the mixture will absorb all the ghee, as it gets roasted it will change colour and ghee will start oozing out . The mixture will become very loose .
Add the boiled milk and give a nice mix well .
Lower the flame .Stir and cook for 2 to 3 mins , till the mixture becomes a bit dry and off the flame .
Boil 3/4 cup sugar + 1/3 cup water + saffron till the sugar dissolves completely .Once the sugar dissolves , boil for few mins .[ 3 to 4 mins ] .We need 1 string consistency of the syrup .
Now gradually add the sugar syrup little by little into the besan mixture .
Keep stirring and mix well . There should be no lumps .Once the syrup is absorbed completely add the cardamom pwdr and mix well.
Allow it to cool for 20 mins . You should be able to touch the mixture .[ dont bring to room temperature ]
Immediately transfer to a tin / tray .
And flatten it gently with a spatula .
Spread a silver varak sheet .
Sprinkle chopped dry fruits evenly all over .
Allow it to cool for 3 to 4 hrs at room tempt or 1 to 2 hrs in fridge .Tastes better when kept overnight and the syrup is well absorbed by the besan .
Slice it with sharp knife into desired size and shape [ square / rectangle / triangle / diamond ] and serve .
NOTES
