Mysore pak

November 14, 2014

I used to watch making Mysore pak by the cooks coming for marriage functions etc. They will come the previous day itself and will make sweets like Laddu, Mysore pak etc. It was very interesting to watch them doing, but I thought its not easy for us. My mother used to make Laddu but I never saw her making Mysore pak.
Anyway I tried it before but it turned out to a besan burfi!!
 This time it came out better than last time, anyway not like a professional style!!
Anyway I'm confident I can make even better next time, and I'll update the photos then:)






Ingredients: 

Besan                        : 1/2 cup
Sugar                        : one and a half cup
Ghee                         : 3/4 cup
Oil                            : 1/4 cup




Method:

Take besan in a broad vessel. Add 2 tablespoons of hot oil to this and mix well, seive it.
Take a tray and grease it with ghee, keep aside.




    In a pan put sugar add a little water to cover the sugar and boil it.




  In another pan heat ghee and oil together.

  Boil sugar till 1 string consistency, reduce the flame in this stage.



Add the besan to this syrup little by little stirring constantly. Now we can add the hot ghee /oil mixture to this little by little.



Whenever you add ghee froth will be coming, stir it well. Continue the process with the ghee until the mixture completely leaves the sides of the pan.


Remove from the fire and slowly pour it in the greased  tray. Wait till it become warm and cut in into the desired shape .

       
After cooling keep it in an airtight container.
