For making this easy and popular recipe, make the dough by mixing ghee and flour in a bowl. Add water and knead well to a soft dough. Once done, cover it with a wet muslin cloth and keep aside for 60 minutes.

In the meantime, saute khoya and semolina till slightly golden in colour and keep aside to cool. Add sugar, hemp hearts, green cardamom and almonds to the cooled khoya and mix well.
