Ingredients

  • 1 cup Garbanzo Bean Flour
  • 3/4 cups Raw Cane Sugar
  • 1 pinch Cardamom Powder
  • 1/4 cups Up Ghee Or Clarified Butter, Up To Triple The Amount As Needed
  • 1/4 cups Pistachios, Cashews, Or Almonds, For Garnish

Method

  • Place flour into a large nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat.
  • Using a wooden spatula/spoon, continuously stir flour around the insides of pan so each grain cooks through and reaches a light amber (not dark brown), giving off a real nutty scent, approximately 15-20 minutes.
  • Stir in sugar. Mix together with the cooked flour for a minute. Take off heat. Add cardamom powder and mix all ingredients well.
  • Add 1/4 cup ghee, stir to combine, adding in more up to triple the amount until the ingredients are moistened and bind well without being greasy.
  • Wait until besan mixture is cooled and roll into 1/2- to 1-inch balls. Garnish with either crushed or whole pistachios, cashews, almonds.
