Instapot Mysore Pak


In a pan, add 125ml/117 gms of ghee and warm it. To this add 100 gms of besan, mix and roast on low heat till besan’s raw smell is replaced with a roasted aroma. The color of the ghee and besan mixture should turn from yellow to golden yellow. The roasting process takes about 10 to 15 mins.
In a 3QT IP add 200 gms sugar, 5 tbsp water, 3 tsps ghee. Mix. Set IP to 1 min on Steam More mode and Pressure Valve set to Sealing. QR.
Add the roasted besan mixture to the sugar syrup and mix thoroughly. Pour into a well greased container. Cut into rectangles while the mixture is warm, yet firm. Usually takes about 15 mins - First try, it took 1+ hour to set. Let rest till Mysore Pak is completely cooled. Remove the pieces from the container carefully and serve.
Note: Make sure you score the Mysore Pak while it is still warm. I forgot to score it and didn’t get perfect pieces.
In a 6QT or 8QT, double everything except time.
