Steps

40 mints

1

Add coarse besan + fine besan + 4 tbs milk + 2 tbs ghee. Mix all ingredients with hand. (It is called dhabo in Gujarati language). Cover it and keep aside for 30 mints.
2

Take a sieve with medium hole and strain the flour. Use you hand to rub the flour through the sieve till none is left in it.
The flour should resemble like bread crumbs or semolina.
3

Heat ghee in a pan over low heat till it melts.
Add the besan flour.
4

Roast the flour in the ghee over low heat, stirring all the time till it becomes brown in colour. This takes about 20-25 minutes.
5

Take the pan off the heat. Add cardamom powder. Let it cook down.
6

Add sugar powder when mixture is slightly warm. Mix well.
7

Grease the tray.
Add the magas mixture into the prepared tray. Bang the tray lightly on the worktop to level out the mixture. Or you can roll them into balls.
Sprinkle the topping immediately. Press it into the magas lightly with a spoon.
8

Cut the magas into square after 1-2 hrs. when the magas sets completely, it becomes difficult to cut into pieces. Let the magas set completely. This will take 4-5 hrs (depends on weather)
9

Magas is ready.
