Ingredients

Besan 1 cup

Sugar 2 cup

Oil 2 ½ cup

Water 1 cup

Method:

In a heavy bottomed pan heat water, when it is hot, add sugar to make sugar syrup.

In the meantime mix besan in 1 ½ cup of oil so that there is no lumps in the mixture.

Now when the sugar syrup is boiling put the heat to low and add the mixture of besan and oil slowly into the sugar syrup and continuously stirring it.

Now continuously stir this mixture and add remaining oil in slowly time to time(at every 2-3 minutes), but keep in mind, you should continuously stir this mixture.

When you had added another cup of oil then after few minutes the mixture will suddenly rise and some net like consistency will appear. This is the most important thing to notice.

Most important step, now at this time you should switch off the heat and immediately transfer the mixture in a prepared greased mold or anything you want. Cut it into squares and allow it to cool.

P.S.-The two most important things are continuously stirring and switching the heat off at the right time.
