  • 1 1/4 cup Cornflour/ corn starch

Method

Dissolve cornflour in three fourth cup of water. Grease a tray.

Mix sugar with one cup of water and bring it to a boil. Add lemon juice, bring it to a boil again and then remove scum. Add edible orange colour and mix.

Reduce heat to medium, add a little cornflour mixture and stir continuously.

When it boils add a little cornflour mixture again. Continue the same process until all the cornflour mixture is used up.

Cook till mixture is thickened and starts sticking. Reduce heat to low.

Add a little melted ghee to it and mix well. When ghee is absorbed, add a little more and let it absorb. Continue till all the ghee is used up.

Take one teaspoon of mixture onto a plate, cool it and if it does not stick to the plate, remove pan from heat.

Add rose water, mix well and then spread it on a greased tray. 

Sprinkle chopped almonds and pistachios on top.

Cut into desired size and shape. Serve when cool.
