Step:
Take both the chana dal flour in a bowl.
Make a small cavity in the middle and pour hot milk and above it pour 1 tbsp melted ghee.
Cover the milk and ghee part with the chana dal flour properly and keep it aside for 10 mins. (This is called as "dhabo devo" in Gujarati)
Meanwhile keep the sugar syrup for being cooked.
Add sugar in a container and add water just enough to cover the sugar in the container.
Add saffron strands and let it get boiled.
The sugar syrup should be of 1.5 strands which will be a bit thick and sticky too.
Now mix all contents of the bowl in which chana dal flours are there.
Now mash all the contents properly with our hands. It should be done in such a way that milk and ghee is applied evenly on the flours.
Now heat the remaining ghee in a non-stick pan.
After it melts add the mashed flour mixture to the ghee.
Heat this mixture on low flame for 10-12 mins while constantly stirring.
After it gets golden brown colour switch off the gas.
Add grated mava to the mixture and mix it well.
Add green cardamom and nutmeg powder to it.
After the bubbling settles down in the flour add the sugar syrup made.
Mix it properly and cook for more 3-4 mins. The loose Mohanthal is ready to serve!
