Holi special Besan ki Chakki (Gram flour fudge) - Steem Exclusive

Holi is a festival of colour in India. Any festival celebration is incomplete without dessert. This year Holi was celebrated on 28-29th March but I prepared this Holi special dessert after the festival.
There are some dishes which are meant to be prepared at any particular festival and on the occasion of Holi Besan Ki Chakki and Gunjiya is the most popular dessert.

There are some variations in the procedure and ingredients of making this recipe but the outcome is almost the same.
Here I made it vegan so replaced the ingredients accordingly.

• Water to make sugar syrup 1/2 cup
• Cashew powder 100 grams (optional)
• Cardamom and nutmeg powder 1/2 tsp
• Dry fruits of your choice
• Dried rose petals for garnishing

Procedure I followed

• Add 2-3 tbsp ghee to gram flour and mix well by hand.
• In a heavy bottom pan mix both ghee and gram flour and roast on a low flame.
• Stir it continuously to avoid get it burning.
• When it started to give a pleasant aroma of gram flour turn off the flame and let it cool down.

• Now to make sugar syrup take sugar and water in the quantity as mention in the ingredients list. heat and bring it to a boil.

• Mix roasted gram flour and cashew powder evenly.
