Tips for making Mysorepak:

Sieve the besan to make sure there are no lumps. This will help in getting smooth texture.
Single consistency of sugar can be tested, by rubbing a drop of sugar syrup between our thumbs and pointer finger and when you open the fingers, a single thread/string will be formed.
When we add besan to sugar syrup, make sure to stir continuously to ensure there are no lumps.
Add ghee in intervals. Each time stir continuously till all the ghee are absorbed.
Finally when all ghee are absorbed, a frothy layer forms and the whole mixture tend to rise like a boiling milk. That is the right consistency. Switch off the flame and pour in grease tin. If you keep cooking ,the mixture will crumble.
Cut into desired shape when the mysorepak mixture is still warm. Do not cool off completely.

▢ 1 Cup Water
▢ 1 tbsp Crystal Sugar Optional for dressing

Instructions

▢
Sieve the gram flour in a siever to get a smooth gram flour without any lumps.
▢
Melt the ghee and keep it ready. We can also add 1 cup of ghee and 1/4 cup of oil instead of using full ghee.

▢
Stir continuously the sugar syrup till we get a single thread consistency. Keep the flame medium when we are about to get single thread
▢
When we rub a drop of sugar syrup between our thumb and index finger, it should form a single thread as shown in the picture given below
▢
Slowly and continously add sieved gram flour and with a whisk or spatula continuously stir the syrup so that the gram flour is mixed nicely with the sugar syrup. It is important that you stir continuously to make sure the lump is not formed. Continue adding the gram flour and mix nicely to avoid any lumps.

IT Engineer turned full time Food Blogger. I ♡ FOOD. I also love food blogging. Did you make a recipe? Tag @Subbusktichen on Instagram. I WANNA SEE!

Mami, If you add 1/2 cup of milk to the mixture before thickening, it will taste more nice & melt in your mouth. Its a tip from my sis-in-law Mrs.Uima

Awesome recipe! Came out perfectly. Thank you so much.

Mami.
I followed the same steps but I got powdery mysorepak with perfect taste and cant make pieces can you pls let me know what should I correct so I can try again.

Thanks

Hi, Sorry for hearing about it. The moment we get froth everywhere in the mysorepak mixture, we need to remove from flame and pour it in a greased plate. If we delay even a minute, it would become brittle. Please dont give up and try again

Hi Mami, just a quick question – am a little confused by the proportions. The amount of sugar mentioned seems too much for half a cup of gram flour. Wouldn't the mysore pak be overly sweet? Can you please clarify?
Also, approximately how much time does it take to reach the one string consistency for the sugar syrup? Please reply. Thanks.

Hi Aparna, as we are adding more ghee and mixing with the gram flour the sugar mentioned above would be the appropriate proportion. in a low flame it will take 10 minutes approximately to get a single thread consistency

hello mami, I tried it today and it has come out very well. It tastes very good. Just that I did not get that brown color. thank you very much.

Maami, you are too good. You are an online "Samaithupaar" book version.
Happy Deepavali maami.

Mami the photos look awesome! Good work!!

Hi Mami,
Lakshmi Suresh here (Australia). I made it again today for my friend. Came out very well. Feeling very pround. Thanks.

Mami it was really really perfect and wonderful I can't believe I did it.

Thanks a ton. Extremely besh besh.

But then at the last it started kind of spitting so I immediately removed from flame
It has come out superb but let know which is the correct moment to take it off

Thanks and nice to hear that you loved it. The moment, the mixture starts getting frothy when you stir, then immediately switch off the flame and then stir in for another few seconds with the heat of the pan and then pour it in the greasy plate. After the froth starts immediately, within few minutes, the mixture tends to break so we need to be quick to remove the mixture from flame.

Aunty your mysore pak looks tempting….but can i ask u something…i would like a crunchy one with pores in it…what should i do???
