Ingredients

(make sure it should not have clumps.)
1 Tsp Rice Flour
Salt 1 pinch
8-10 Cashews
8-10 Raisins
4-5 Cloves
Orange colour
4 tbsp Ghee.
8-10 Elaichi (powdered)

Method

Mix channa besan, rice flour, pinch of orange colour and salt with water. (the

Heat oil in a frying pan. In the mean time in a pan heat 3/4 cup of water. Bring it to
boil. Then add 1 3/4 of sugar. Put it in medium heat to make the sugar syrup.
(Care should be taken that the sugar syrup is not over done. Using a spoon take few
drops of sugar syrup, when you pour it from the spoon the last drop of the syrup
should form a thin continuous line. If it doesn't keep it for boiling for another 2 minutes.)
When the oil is heated up, using a cup pour the mix little by little on a perforated spoon
to make boondi. Fry it for 3 minutes. Continue with the remaining mix. In a heated pan
add 1 tbsp of ghee and fry cloves and cashews. Keep it aside.
Once the boondies are done put it in a vessel and smash 1/4 of boondi with a spoon
then add the sugar syrup, raisins, fried cashews , cloves, powdered elaichi and the
remaining ghee.
Make it into a ball (even when it is hot.)
