Ingredients
Serves 4
– 1/4 to 1/8th tsp saffron
– 2 tbsp hot water to dissolve the saffron
– 540 gm (3 cups) white pumpkin, grated
– 270 gm (1 1/2 cups) sugar
– 70 gm (1/3 cup) ghee
– 4 green cardamom pods, powdered
– 10 to 15 cashew nuts (or more if desired)
– 1 tbsp golden raisins (or more if desired)
Method
– In a mortar, place the saffron and put in the hot water. After 10 minutes, grind to a paste using a pestle. This will reveal the vibrant hue of saffron.
– In a wok or kadhai, place the grated pumpkin and over low heat cook until the water evaporates and the pumpkin is dry, this should take about 5 minutes. Make sure that the pumpkin is stirred constantly, if not there is the danger of it getting burnt.
– Once the pumpkin is dry, add the sugar, the saffron mixture, increase the heat a little and cook until the sugar melts. Decrease the heat a little and cook until the mixture is a deep golden colour and dry.
– In a small wok, heat the ghee and add the cashews and raisins and fry until they are golden in colour.
– Stir in the ghee, along with the dry fruits to the pumpkin and cook until the mixture starts to leave the sides of the pan.
– Stir in the fragrant cardamom powder.
– Turn off the heat.
Note: – This can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
It stays fresh for up to a week in the refrigerator and a month in the freezer. – Tastes best when warm or at room temperature.
– Can be easily doubled, tripled or quadrupled for a larger crowd.
