Instructions
  1. In a bowl add Besan, 4 tbsp ghee and milk, mix and crumble them all together. Now sieve the crumbled Besan with a sieve and keep aside.
  2. Heat 100 grams or 1 cup of Ghee in a non sick pan and add sieved Besan into it. Keep stirring continuously until golden brown in color.
  3. The mix will be thin in consistency, keep stirring for a minute or two and turn off the gas.
  4. In a separate pan add sugar and water. As soon as it comes to a boil, add saffron strands and cardamom powder.
  5. Cook the syrup till one string consistency. It means, dip a spoon in the syrup and tough it, if the syrup is sticky between two fingers and makes a string, it’s done. Turn off the gas and transfer the syrup over Besan mixture.
  6. Keep the gas off and continue to stir for 5 minutes or til the mixture cools and slightly thickens.
  7. Now transfer the mix into a greased plate and gently tap so that the mix spreads evenly.
  8. Add some Raisins and finely chopped nuts on top along with some dried rose petals. Gently press the nuts over the mix using a spatula so that they don’t fall off later.

  10. You can serve it immediately or store mohanthal for a week by refrigerating.
