1. Put sugar, milk, condensed milk and ghee into a large heated saucepan (a non stick pan is excellent for this). 2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches soft ball stage or 116°C (240°F) on a candy thermometer. 3. (To test for softball stage, drop a little into a cup of ice.cold water. If it firms enough to be moulded into a soft ball, it has reached the required temperature.). 4. Remove from heat, add smoothly mashed potato and beat with a rotary beater until all lumps are beaten out. 5. If using a pan with non stick lining, pour mixture into a bowl before doing this or the metal beaters will scratch the non stick surface. 6. Return to heat and cook to soft ball stage or 116°C (240°F) once more. 7. Remove from heat, stir in nuts, rose water and cardamom and mix well. 8. Pour into a well buttered shallow dish or baking tin. 9. Pres lightly with a piece of buttered banana leaf or aluminium foil to smooth and flatten the surface. 10. Allow to cool and set, then cut into diamond shapes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
