1. Roast the seeds on a griddle till they start to splutter and take on just a suggestion of colour.
2.

3. Put in the ghee and the khoya and sauté till it appears to be of a uniform consistency and looks slightly fried.
4.
4. Take off the heat; add the roasted sesame seeds and leave to cool.

5. In another pan, warm the sugar and water together over low heat, stirring a few times till the sugar dissolves.

7. Mix immediately into the cooled khoya mixture, stirring vigorously to blend well.
