Ingredients:

• Cashew -100g
• Sugar – 250g
• Ghee -1/3 cup
• Milk -1/2 cup
• Saffron -1/4 tsp

Method:

1. Soak cashew in milk for an hour and grind finely along with saffron.
2. In a casserole, mix sugar with 1/2 cup of water and stir well.
3. Microwave it on high for 4 minutes to dissolve the sugar, stirring once in between.
4. Microwave ghee for 1 minute, on high.
5. Add cashew paste and hot ghee to sugar syrup.
6. Microwave on high for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring thoroughly twice in between.
7. Test the mixture by putting a drop of mixture into cold water. If it forms a soft, firm ball, then it is ready. If not, microwave on high for another 1 or 2 minutes.
8. Add cardamom powder, mix well, and pour on to a greased plate; cut when slightly cool.
