Corn flour1/2 cup
Sugar1 & 1/2 cups
Water2 cups
Ealchi powderA pinch
Cashews5 nos.
Ghee2 –3  tsp
Food colour1/2 pinch

  1. Mix corn flour,sugar,water and food colour in a large microwavable bowl, without any lumps.

     
  2. Microwave in high for 6 minutes. After 4 minutes in between, mix once. Again microwave for 6 minutes, stirring in between after every 2 minutes of interval.
  3. Fry cashews in ghee till golden brown and mix well. Grease a plate with ghee and pour in the plate and let it cool down for 1/2 hour or so. Cut into pieces and enjoy!

Notes

  • Stirring in between as mentioned is very important to ensure even cooking.
  • Do not reduce the sugar amount,as it will change the glossy look too and end up in porridge ;)
  • The whole process is made in microwave high power.
  • According to oven the cooking time varies plus or minus 2-3 minutes.
  • Consume within one or two days. Refrigeration changes the texture so it is not recommended.
  • There is a easy way to remember the recipe. 1 part corn flour,3 parts sugar,4 parts water. i.e; which ever cup u use, use the same cup and follow the ratio. Simple.
