What does it include?
Ingredients
- 250 grams of condensed milk
- 75 grams of besan flour
- 30 ml of ghee
- 500 milliliters of water
- 200 grams of sugar
- 5 ml cardamom seeds
- 3 cloves
How to prepare it step by step?
Preparation
- In a bowl, mix the condensed milk and besan flour until it forms a soft, pliable dough.
- Divide the dough into walnut-sized balls, ensuring each is smooth and uniform.
- Heat the ghee in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, gently fry the balls until they turn a rich golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. They should be cooked through but not hard.
- For the syrup, combine water, sugar, cloves, and cardamom in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the syrup thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. The syrup should coat the back of a spoon.
- Carefully dip the fried balls into the hot syrup. Allow them to soak for at least 4 hours to absorb the flavors fully before serving.
