Mysore Pak

Mysore Pak is an authentic sweet dish of Karnataka, first created in the royal kitchens of Mysore Palace.
One of the very famous sweet dish with very few ingredients and generous amount of ghee.

My first attempt of Mysore Pak turned out really good. Here is the recipe.. Happy Cooking :)


Ingredients:

Gram Flour - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 3/4 cup
Ghee - 1 1/2 cup
Water - 1 cup


Method:

Mix two table spoons of ghee with the gram flour.

Heat water in a pan and when it starts to boil, add sugar to it and mix well. The sugar dissolves completely and starts forming syrup. Now add half cup of hot ghee to this and mix well.

Add the gram flour to the pan while stirring continuously so that no lumps are formed. Now keep adding little  ghee each time and keep stirring the mix.

When the gram flour starts to thicken, the excess ghee is released on the sides. Rub a plate with ghee and pour the mix onto it and spread. After two minutes, when the mixture is still hot, cut it into pieces.
