    Hi Nainika...
    Here I have a recipe for you.

    How to Make Sandesh

    Sandesh is a typical Bengali Sweet but well liked sweet outside Bengal too.

    Ingredients

    • Samolina (Sooji, Rava) 2 cups
    • Sugar 1 cup
    • Ghee 2 tbs
    • Small Cardamom powder 1/2tbs
    • Grated Coconut 1
    Method

    • Heat ghee in the pan. Add semolina and fry it till it turns light brown. Keep aside.
    • Make 1 string sugar syrup and add cardamom powder.
    • Put the pan on fire again and add coconut and sugar syrup. Mix all the ingredients and stir it till it starts forming lumps. Cool it a little then put it in the moulds and make different shapes.
    Hope you like it...
    Enjoy...:)
