Notes
- Toast the gram flour lightly to remove raw smell.
- Don't add too much sugar. 1 cup was perfect.
- Getting the sugar consistency is very important. One string consistency.
- Keep cooking only the mentioned time. else the mysorepak will over cook.
- The mysore pak mix has to be smooth. That gives the smooth texture.
