• Preparation : In a mixing bowl, dissolve the sugar in hot water. Also, place parchment paper or wax paper on a large baking tray or cutting board. Apply some ghee or coconut oil on it and set it aside.
• Roasting : Warm up ghee or coconut oil in a heavy bottom pan. Add Almond flour. On a low heat roast it for about 3 minutes or until it turns golden brown .
• Mix : Combine the sugar hot water mixture and roasted almond flour. Add cardamom powder and rose water. Continue to mix until it forms a dough.
• Roll the dough : Turn off the heat and transfer the dough to the prepared parchment paper. Allow it to cool for a few minutes. Grease your hands and knead the dough for 1-2 minutes. Then use a rolling pin and flatten the dough into smooth round or sqaure.
• Cut the shape : Let the flattened dough completely cool down. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into desired shape. I often cut it into diamonds.
• Garnish and serve: Add the saffron and rose petals on the top. You can also garnish with chandi ka vark (edible silver wrap) on top. Serve and Enjoy !
