Everytime we went to Chandigarh to visit my GrandMa, she would make us tons of panjiri. I've tried making it myself 3 times, with her on the phone initially and this is the best ever. So, here is the recipe.1/2 cup desi ghee
2 cups flour (i use Golden Temple atta)
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup crushed almonds
1/4 cup raisins
1 tbsp char magaz crushed
1/2 tsp each - ginger powder, saunf, ajwain, kamarkas, goond
Heat ghee for 5 min. till hot. Mix the flour and stir occasionally for 30 min. (my arm is still hurting since yesterday - this is the hardest part). The later part of the 15 min. is crucial as you have to make sure the flour does not burn. On the side, heat 1tsp ghee and mix the kamarkas and goond. Add all the ingredients except sugar and mix well. Remove from the heat. Mix the powdered sugar after about 20 min. (again a good workout). Once it has cooled down a bit, you could compact it for 'on-the-go' people while it is still a bit oily (refer to the last pic). Voila...
