Starting with my favourite sweet-Mysore Pak

Like all the girls I too inherit cooking and craft interest from my dear mom. This sweet is special one for both my mom and me. Few days after my mom's marriage my grandma asked the sweet she knows to make.Since mom is known for her favourite mysore pak she said this cute melting moments. And the next minute she was asked to do that and she won all hearts .And for a surprise I too first made mysorepak at my in laws place a week after my marriage.So for both of us this has become memorable one.

Ingredients

Besan flour-1 cup

sugar- 2 cup

water- 1 cup

ghee 2-2 1/2 cups

Method

1.First sieve the besan flour and

roast it in 1 tsp ghee till u get the aroma.

2.In another kadai melt the ghee.

3.In a heavy bottomed pan or cooker,

add sugar and water.

4.Once u get 1/2 string consistency add

besan flour.

5.Now add ghee little by little to this.

6.Keep on stirring till the ghee separetes from the pan.(as in picture 2)

7.Pour it in a greased plate.After 3 min cut it

to the desired shape.

Tips

Never use old besan flour.

if besan is not handy amma used to

powder roasted bengal gram .You never fail with roasted bengal gram.
