Method

1. Dry roast besan on medium heat in a heavy kadhai.

3. Once it is evenly browned, add the ghee and mix well. Keep cooking till the mix thickens and its colour changes.
4. As the mix gets cooked, it will start leaving ghee on the sides and give a nice aroma.
5. Now remove the kadhai from the fire and add the castor sugar to it. Mix it very well so that no lumps are formed, and the sugar gets mixed.
6. Add the cardamom powder and chopped dry fruits to the mix.
