Sohan Papdi

🇮🇳 Indian

Flaky sohan papdi, the mithai box's most contested square. Ghee, sugar, patience — the three ingredients in every Indian celebration. Best after resting an hour; the flavours settle.

Prep 30 min Cook 25 min Serves 5 Medium

Ingredients

  • Salta pinch
  • Ghee3 tbsp
  • All-Purpose Flour2 cups
  • Sugar1 tsp
  • Gram Flour1 cup
  • Green Cardamom4, ground

Instructions

  1. 1

    Measure everything before lighting the flame; there is no pause button mid-cook.

  2. 2

    Start the base: the all-purpose flour and gram flour together in a thick pan, stirring so nothing catches.

  3. 3

    Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens and leaves the sides of the pan — 15 to 25 minutes of honest work.

  4. 4

    Stir in the sugar with the cardamom; the aroma should bloom immediately.

  5. 5

    Shape or slice once it has cooled enough to handle; it firms up as it rests.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
