MYSORE PAK - TRADITIONAL SWEET


Mysore pak sweet is a specialty of South Indian homes. Mysore pak for us in our family has to be bit rocky and less in sweet, light yellowish outside and brown color inside with porous holes in it makes it perfect.

Nowadays it has become a rarity to see mysore pak being served on any occasions. Every one have shifted their interests to North Indian sweets. No Diwali or function is complete without traditional mysore pak and boondi laddu during my childhood days. My mom makes the best mysore pak and i use to finish the entire batch in less than an hour.

Ingredients:
Besan / Gram flour - 1/2 cup
Ghee - 1/2 cup
Vegetable oil - 1/4 cup
Sugar - 1/2 cup
Water - 1/4 cup

Method:

Swift gram flour so that no lumps are there.

Heat a pan, in lowest heat dry roast the flour for 8-10 minutes heat and set aside.

Bring water with sugar to one string consistency.

Mean while heat oil + ghee mixture in another pan once it become hot turn into low heat.

Add gram flour to the sugar mixture spoon by spoon slowly and keep stirring so that no lumps are there.

Once the gram flour is completely mixed start adding ghee + oil mixture ladle by ladle and keep stirring this besan mixture.

Keep adding until the entire oil + ghee mixture is finished.

Keep mixing the besan mixture from semi loose to thick mixture they will turn foamy then it will start turning thicker and once porous structure is created immediately transfer to a greased tray and allow to cool.

All these time stirring in low heat continuously is a must.

In 10 minutes slice the mysore pak, and once it cools cut them sprinkle sugar granules and store in air tight container.
