Pista Cake
Ingredients
1 cup Pista
2 cups Sugar
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cup Ghee
Milk just enough to grind the pista
Pista Essence two to three drops
Method
- Soak pista for 4 hours in cold water.
- Peel the skin and grind pista into a paste adding milk instead of
water. The paste must be like tomato sauce.
- In a thick bottom vessel pour the paste and sugar and keep it on the
stove. Keep stiring constantly so that it does not stick to the vessel.
- Once the sugar is dissolved start adding ghee little by little. The
cake will start thickning . Add as much as ghee is needed. Once the cake
leaves the bottom of the vessel add the essence and stir once.
- Pour it in a greased tray and let it cool for some time.
- Then cut
it in desired shapes.
Your pista cake is ready to eat hot..hot.
Note: You can add green colour if you like.
