Keep stirring frequently, when the liquid has almost evaporated, add ghee and mix well and keep stirring
When the mixture starts leaving the sides of the pan and moves along your ladle. It is time to transfer it into the greased plate
Transfer the mixture on to the greased plate, smoothen the top using a greased bowl or parchment paper.
