Besan chakki

Besan chakki (also known as besan barfi) is a traditional Indian sweet made from gram flour (besan), ghee, and sugar, often flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts. The sweet is known for its firm, fudge-like texture and rich, nutty flavor derived from slow-roasting the gram flour in ghee. While popular throughout North and Western India, its origin is most closely linked to Rajasthan, where gram flour is a staple in both sweets and savory dishes. It holds a prominent place in Rajasthani cuisine, particularly among Marwari communities, and is commonly prepared during festivals, weddings, and religious occasions.
