Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 3/4 cup Water
  • 1 tbsp Desi Ghee
  • 4 crushed Green Cardamom

Instructions
 

  • To make Tagar, we will take a Kadai or a Pan. Add 1 cup of Sugar.
  • Pour 3/4 cup of water into the Kadai. Stir and mix. We are making Boora Chini or Tagar from white sugar. It is usually made for Laddus and Pedas.
  • Let the sugar mixture cook and wait until bubbles appear all over the mixture, and it starts looking white.
  • Wait until the mixture turns white and bubbly. At this stage, we will add a tbsp of Desi Ghee.
  • Also, as we are making flavored Boora Sugar, add 3-4 crushed green cardamom or else skip it if you are making plain Tagar. Stir and mix well.
  • Turn off the flame and stir the mixture in a circular direction continuously without stopping.
  • As you keep stirring, you will see that the mixture will start thickening and turning white.
  • You can see below that the mixture has thickened as it cools down and turned white.
  • You can now mash the Tagar using a potato mixture. This will get rid of any lumps.
  • Our Tagar/ Boora Sugar is ready now. Make Ladoos and other Mithai from it.
