You Will Need (7 things)

  • 1 cup cold Milk
  • 1 cup Sugar (more or less according to taste)
  • ¼ cup Ghee
  • ¼ cup fine white Semolina

  • For garnishing

  • a handful Chopped Almonds and pistachios
  • 1 tbsp Ground Cardamom

Steps (4 steps, 45 minutes)

  1. 1

    Add everything into a heavy bottom bottom non-stick pan and heat on medium heat.

  2. 2

    Stir constantly. It will start to thicken after 20-25 minutes. Add cardamom powder. Keep stirring.

  3. 3

    Once it starts leaving the sides of the pan add a little more ghee and keep stirring.

    Once it gets a doughy consistency, transfer the mixture onto a greased cookie sheet or aluminium foil. Place another greased sheet on top of the mixture and roll it thin with a rolling pin.

    Sprinkle chopped pistachios and almonds and roll it again to press and embed the nuts into the dough.

    Let it harden a little. Cut into diamonds or squares and serve
