Indian Sweet - Mysore Pak



Serves: 10
Preparation time: 15min 
Cooking time: 20min 

Ingredients
* Besan flour - 1cup
* Sugar - 1½cup
* Ghee - 1½cup
* Water - 1cup 

Method
* Take the besan in a large bowl
* Heat the ghee in a pan
* When boiling hot pour ½cup of ghee on to the besan flour
* Mix well and the flour should be looking crispy.  Keep it aside.
* Now in another pan take 1 cup of water and add the sugar into it and heat it in a medium flame. 
* Constantly stir the sugar water until it comes to a single string consistency.
* Now simmer the flame. 
* Start adding the besan mix little by little into the sugar syrup and simultaneously stir the mix constantly, so that it won't form lumps.
* Keep on stirring until the besan mix in the sugar syrup does not stick to the pan
* Now add the boiling ghee little by little and keep on stirring the mix
* Keep about little ghee ( about ⅛cup) balance
* When the ghee and mix has mixed well, it will become a very good pulp like form.
* Now transfer the pulp into a flat tray and spread it naturally.
* Pour the remaining ghee on top of the spread.
* Allow it to cool naturally for 2~3min.
* Now cut them into desired shape and allow it to cool for further 5min.
* Reverse the tray on a bigger plate and tap the tray gently such that the solidified sweet will fall.
* Your Mysore pak is ready
