1. Melt half the ghee then stir in the gram flour until well blended. Place the sugar into a heavy-based pan and just cover with water.

2. Boil to a thick syrup then strain to remove the scum. Melt the remaining ghee. Stir the flour mixture into the syrup and stir over a low heat, gradually adding the melted ghee.

3. Stir over a low heat until the ghee appears on the surface and the mixture froths up.

4. Pour quickly on to a greased baking sheet and leave to cool slightly. Cut into pieces. Leave to cool completely then store in an airtight container.
