Cashew nuts – 2 tspns (chopped)

2. Take a heavy bottomed pan and add 2 spoons of ghee when it melts add the cashews and then gram flour and keep stirring on a low flame until its smells good. Take care to remove all the lumps.
3. I used a potato masher to remove all the lumps:-). Worked really well for me.
4. Once it turns slightly brownish, turn off the gas and keep it down to cool it.
5. Add sugar (grind normal sugar in blender) to this mixture along with saffron and cardamom powder.
