Mysore pak

[GpeL]

My SIL got that from Chennai. Made with pure ghee. Even a sweet hater like me loved this one. Here is how to make it.. quite simple though it takes time.

Mysore Pak

Ingredients:
1 big cup red gram flour
2 big cups sugar
3 big cups ghee

Vidhi

Prepare sugar syrup by adding 1 cup of water to the sugar put it on a flame and wait for the sugar to become "pak" or liquid a little think do not let it go brown. Add gram flour and ghee evenly to the syrup on low flame. When the mixture leaves sides of the pan, add the remaining ghee and mix well. Then remove it from the flame and spread evenly on a greased tray (use ghee and not motor vehicle greese :D). After its cooled down, cut into rectangle shapes. Stays for a long time without refrigration.

Eat.. tastes great and has very

Here is a better version.. a cut and paste.

1 cup gram flour
3 cups sugar
1 cup ghee
2 cardamoms
a pinch of edible camphor (optional)

* Dry roast the gram flour to a golden colour. Keep aside.
* Make a syrup with sugar and water to one string consistency.
* While stirring, slowly add the gram flour. Continue stirring, adding melted ghee simultaneouly. Add all the ghee in this manner.
* Cook till the mixture leaves the sides of the pan.
* Add cardamom powder and edible camphor.
* Smear a plate with ghee. Pour in the mixture, spread and level. Leave it to cool. While still warm cut into diamond shapes.
* Mysore pak should be porous, light and crisp.
