Ghee Mysore pak

Diwali and no Mysorepak .? unimaginable ..well at least that is one sweet i make in limited qty . this morning , i made exactly 8 pieces of mysore pak as a trial run , which i do normally almost every year , but first time i have made exactly 8 pieces ..using 1/3 cup chickpea flour .

for those wanting to do a test run , for new comers, , newly married wanting to impress guests and family , do this trial , if happy go for the full 1 cup or more.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup besan flour ( chick pea flour )

1 cup Ghee and 1/4 cup oil ( optional step )

1 cup sugar

1/4 cup water

Important :

choose any cup small katoris that you have have in the kitchen , and use the same for measuring other ingredients ..( .i used a 1/3 cup as measuring cup .)

so use the 1/3 cup as your cup measurement ..hope no confusion

Method

  1. Roast 1 cup besan without changing colour . It will give a nice aroma, remove from heat and sieve well .

  2. Add 1/2 cup ghee, make a batter like consistency with ghee besan mixture , keep aside .

  3. Take a heavy bottomed pan , add sugar, melt with 1/4 cup water , if your sugar has dirt, clean it with 2 tbsp milk, remove the floating foamy scum with a tea sieve.

  4. Now allow the syrup top bubble and froth to make one string consistency, it must be little sticky and pull with one thin thread. Thats all, this recipe is very easy , if your surup looks sticky, that is enough .

  5. Now quickly add ghee besan batter to the syrup, keeping low flame and continous stirring .

  6. Now add the first portion of 2 tbsp ghee , keep stirring , add ghee at intervals .

  7. Remember to keep flame low all the time and continous stirring as you dont want the mixture to stick at the bottom .

  8. Add ghee after it has been absorbed .

  9. Add at intervals 2 tbs p at a time

  10. Lastly you will see it looking smooth and thick and coming together, check by making a small ball with a drop of the hot mixture carefully, it must form a ball and not be sticky , switch off , pour into greased square tray .

  11. Tap lightly to set, dont pat too much , make the cut marks before fully set .

    Enjoy ! Delicious ghee mysorepak, melts in the mouth , easy to prepare . Even beginners can attempt this recipe as it is totally foolproof . check out more mysorepak recipe variations from my blog .

Tip

For making this smooth ghee mysorepak, the batter consistency is important, you must not allow the mixture to go into next stage of the porous mysorepak, by keeping it for more time , no need to have the frothy consisteny that is needed for the thick crunchy mysorepak, that is another recipe . you have to remove when mixture is thick, leaving sides and about to become frothy , just test a pinch of the batter with a ladle, it muts form a smooth ball non sticky, that is enough , on cooling you will get smooth mysorepak like you see in shop .

Given below is my youtube channel video of the same, here i have shaped the mysorepak little differently by cutting them like long bars , otherwise recipe and method is the same , in the pics above i have used a deep tray to set so the mysoreapk squares look big and fat like blocks . Choose the tray according to your preference .
