    **Full Recipe** – [Laapsi](https://www.bitensip.com/laapsi/)

    **Ingredients**

    * 2 cups Broken wheat
    * 1 ½ cups Sugar
    * 4-5 cups Water
    * 3 tbsp Ghee
    * 1 tbsp Oil
    * 10-20 Raisins
    * 3-4 Cardamom pieces
    * Few almonds, cashew, and pistachio (chopped and soaked) (optional)

    **Directions**

    1. For laapsi, heat the ghee and oil in a non-stick kadhai, and saute cardamom pieces for a minute.
    2. Take out the cardamom pieces and put them aside. Add broken wheat to the kadhai with oil and ghee and mix well.
    3. On a slow flame, cook the laapsi or cracked wheat for 5-10 minutes or till it turns golden brown.
    4. Stir continuously, and don’t let the laapsi stick at the bottom of the kadhai.
    5. Add water, stir well, and cook on medium flame until the water starts boiling or bubbling.
    6. Add sugar and mix, and let the laapsi turn golden brown.
    7. Cook till the broken wheat (laapsi) is done while stirring constantly.
    8. Cook until the ghee separates while stirring continuously for 5-8 minutes.
    9. Garnish with the chopped almonds, cashew, pistachio, and cardamom pieces.
    10. Serve the laapsi hot.

    **Notes**

    1. Add a generous amount of ghee for roasting the broken wheat (laapsi). This makes the dish more aromatic.
    2. Roast the laapsi on low or medium flame to avoid the burning of laapsi, which will impact the flavors.
    3. You can use jaggery instead of sugar for the healthier version.
    4. If you prepare laapsi in advance, add 1 tbsp ghee and ½ cup milk and stir well. Reheat for 5-8 minutes.
