GHEE GOR LOLLIPOPS

A tea-time treat that even my grandparents remembered eating as kids, reimagined into
lollypops. Simple wholesome ingredients made into something delicious yet cheap!

Prep Time: 10m Cook Time: 10m Total Time: 20m

Yield: 12 - 15 Lollypops Category: Desserts & Tea Snacks

INGREDIENTS

3 tablespoons high quality cow ghee

200 grams dark, unprocessed jaggery

50 milliliters water

50 grams crushed nuts of your choice - cashew, almond or pistachio

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Take a clean-lipped plate or shallow glass dish and rub the soft ghee over the entire plate. If using silicone
moulds, rub some ghee inside instead.

2. Chop the jaggery into small pieces

3. Heat a small pan and add the jaggery as well as the water.

4. Keeping the flame on medium heat let the mixture boil without stirring for about 15-18 minutes. If you have
a candy thermometer, you want the mixture to reach about 135 degrees celsius.

5. f you don’t have a thermometer, you can test the caramel manually by getting it to one string consistency. A
great way to test for one string is to take a clean spoon and drop a spoonful of jaggery back into the pan - it
should fall in the consistency of fine hair. Make sure you always use a clean dry spoon and never use the
same spoon again as this will have an impact on the consistency of the caramel.

6. While the caramel is cooking, crush the nuts in a food processor and set aside.

7. Once the caramel is ready, mix in 1 tbsp of ghee.

8. If you’re making these as lollypops, pour the caramel into a lipped plate making sure every inch is covered in
the same thickness. Allow this to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Once the mixture has
cooled, rub a little ghee onto your hands and then break off a tbsp of the caramel. Roll it into a small ball and
then roll it in the crushed nuts and then flatten the ball onto your skewer.

9. If you’re being lazy and using moulds you can pour the caramel directly into the moulds and top them with
the crushed nuts. Allow to set. Once the toffee is hardened pop them out of the moulds.

10. Either way, keep them stored in a cool place in a sealed container. Use within a week as the toffee will slowly
hydrate and become sticky.
