Sesame Chikki

A few days back while watching television I came across this recipe. I tried this recipe and it came out good. Since it is easy to make and takes only 3-4 minutes to make this dish, I would like to share it with you.

Ingredients:

2 cups roasted til or sesame seeds

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon ghee

Method:

Prepare the kitchen counter surface or a portion of the table by cleaning it well and applying a little ghee to it. Apply ghee to the rolling pin also.

Heat a thick-bottomed saucepan or a kadai and add the sugar and ghee to it and stir continuously until the sugar melts completely. Once the sugar is caramelized, quickly add the roasted sesame seeds and chopped peanut (optional) and mix well

Pour it on to the prepared surface and roll it immediately with the greased rolling pin. Cut into desired shape when the chikki is hot. Once it is cool, you may break the pieces and store them in an airtight container.
