- Heat a thick bottomed pan and pour the mixture, and stir continuously, over a medium flame, (make sure no lumps are formed) until paste thickens. Check the correct consistency by taking a small spoonful mixture and spreading it evenly as thin as possible over the back of a plate, allow it to cool for some time.
- Now try taking out the portion you have spread over the plate, if it comes out without sticking to the plate, then the consistency is right.
