Steps

1

To begin making the Chiroti recipe, we will first begin with the dough. In a wide bowl, mix maida, ghee and knead into a stiff dough adding water gradually. You can also use the a food processor like I have, do knead the dough and bring it together.
2

The dough should be firm and smooth, similar to that of a puri. Cover and set aside for 15-20 minutes.
3

To prepare sugar syrup, add sugar and water in a pan and allow to boil. Once the syrup starts boiling, reduce the flame to low and check the consistency of sugar syrup.
4

You should have a one string consistency sugar syrup. Add cardamom powder and turn off heat. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix ghee, rice flour and maida. Stir and keep aside.
5

Take the Chiroti out and place it on a platter. Sprinkle chopped nuts over the chiroti and allow it to cool. Once cooled, store the Chiroti in an air-tight container and serve as desired.
6

Serve Chiroti as a sweet along with your festive meal or you can serve it your guests on Diwali along with other snacks like Instant Poha
