👩‍🍳 How to make Sukhdi

  1. Grease a 7-inch square plate thoroughly with ghee on all sides.
  2. Place ghee (125g) in heavy-bottomed pan over low-medium heat (140°C) until melted and warm.
  3. Add wheat flour; stir continuously to create thick, lumpy paste.
  4. Roast on low heat (130°C) with constant stirring for 4-5 min.
  5. Mixture should become lighter, airier, turning darker with toasted aroma.
  6. Immediately remove from heat when flour is properly roasted.
  7. Mix in grated jaggery while flour is still hot; it melts instantly.
  8. Stir well for 1-2 min until combined.
  9. Quickly pour mixture onto prepared plate; spread evenly using back of spoon.
  10. While still warm (after 1-2 min), mark with knife into 2-inch squares or diamonds.
  11. Allow to cool completely before removing pieces.
  12. Serve at room temperature. Should be soft, crumbly, melting on tongue.
