Tips

  • Adjust sugar according to your taste. You can add sugar upto 3 cups. I felt 2.5 cups of sugar is enough.
  • Please don’t reduce the ghee amount otherwise you won’t get melt in mouth taste.
  • I used homemade besan flour to make mysore pak.
  • You can also add some ground moong dal flour additional to besan flour to get a nice taste.
  • If your mysore pa didn’t set well after 10 mins it means mixture didn’t cook enough. So please transfer it to a pan and keep stirring until you see larger bubbles, then transfer it to ghee greased plate. This repair method works for me.
  • Don’t cook it for longer time, then mysore pak turns very hard.
