  • In between heat the sugar with water enough to cover the sugar.
  • Boil and filter the sediments and again bring to boil.
  • When sugar reaches 1 string consistency switch off the stove.
  • Add rose essence ,cardamom powder and saffron.
  • Simultaneously heat the kadai with oil and fry the badusha's in medium heat.
  • Fry till golden brown and drain it for a minute in tissues.
  • Add the badusha's in batches.(Should leave in the syrup for 2 minutes and take away)
  • Finally add all the fried badusha's to the remaining syrup for the final coating before it crystallizes.
  • This final coating gives badusha's light sugar covering.

Notes

I have not added lemon juice to prevent crystallization because I want the sugar to coat the badhusha.
I have made mini badhusha's but you can make it bigger.
The badhusha's should be quickly mixed otherwise it crystallizes soon.
Plan accordingly and make it on time to never miss a step
