How To Make (Gram Flour) Besan Halwa:

• Take 1 and 1/2 cup besan in a vessel.
• Add 2 tablespoon ghee and 2 tablespoon milk to it and mix. Keep it aside to rest for 20 minutes.
• We will also require saffron for the syrup. So soak 4-5 saffron strands in warm water till the time besan is resting.
• Now sieve the besan into another vessel to get good texture.
• Heat a pan. Add 1 cup ghee to it.
  Once ghee turns hot add sieved gram flour (besan) to it.
• Keep continuously stirring on low flame till besan turns golden brown.
• Add 1/2 cup milk and stirr. Again add more 1/2 cup milk, cardamon powder and keep stirring for 2-3 minutes.
• Now take off the pan from flame and get ready for sugar syrup.

For Sugar Syrup:

• Put a vessel on flame with 1 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of water in it.
• Keep stirring in between. You can increase the flame to medium.
• Put tablespoon of milk to remove dirt from sugar in the syrup.
• As soon as you put milk you will see all sugar dirt getting collected on top. You can remove it with the help of spoon and throw out.
• Add soaked saffron (kesar) water along with saffron to the syrup and cook till you get 1 string consistency.
• Now pour the syrup in besan. put the besan pan on flame and stirr till you get nice halwa texture.
• Allow halwa to cool for sometime and then you can serve.
• You can also refrigerate this besan halwa and use it for more days.
