Notes

  1. Do note, don't add powdered sugar while residue is very hot. Otherwise it will become like a halwa which you will not be able to bind later.
  2. Instead of sugar, you can also used powdered jaggery.
  3. Quantity of sugar will vary depending on the quantity of ghee residue you are left with. So apply your judgment.
  4. As the ghee residue is already roasted much (while ghee was in making process), so don't roast it much again. Just need to make it hot so that you can bind easily.
  5. If mixture is dry and finding difficulty in binding, add bit of warm milk. It will help.
  6. If mixture is too loose and finding difficulty in binding, keep it in refrigerator for some time. Will be easy to bind then.
