Mysore Pak Recipe


Mysore pak - I just love it anytime and had never belived that I could make this at home. The moment I saw Sharmis Passions...post it. I wanted to try it as her stepwise was so clear and I felt confident about making it.. My daughter loves Sri Krishna Sweets mysore pak and thats the main reason I wanted to try it.. Yes she loved it and asked for more....


This version is very soft not extractly same as sks as the ghee doesnot oozes out, But tastes very close to it...The first time i tried, everything came out perfect that i found a slightest raw smell of basen, so when Itried it the next time for posting I followed an extra step of roasting and then sieveing it... It is superb in both texture and tastewise...Sure this is going to be my keeper.




This version of mysorepak is very easy to make even for a beginner. Trust me. If i had it right the very first time am sure every one can get it right...So get ahead to make this easy mysore recipe.... Hope you must give it a try and comments about the sweet....
