Has it ever happened that you watched Micheal Phelps swimming or a Usain Bolt running like sheer poetry and believed you can do that as well? Your over enthusiastic adrenaline motivates you to do the same only that Usain bolt would run like he does while you probably would do a phoebe!! You are like – hey waitttaminute! What went wrong? Why is this even difficult? Then somewhere a voice  (your conscious of course – who else) gives you gyan that you were deceived/mislead by virtuoso in motion that comes with repeated practice. This South Indian gift to mankind -  Ghee Mysore Pak, an immensely smooth “melt-in-the-mouth” sweet, follows the exact same principle. Its a very simple fudge made using chickpea flour (besan) boasting minimalistic ingredients (just 3!!) and quick cooking time. In the world of complicated Indian desserts, this one is supposedly simpler. Ha, did you notice  “supposedly”? But never fret! We just found a solution that opens the gate to “sweet” gluttony. You noticed my play on words din’t you?

Enter OPOS©Have you given up on my incessant OPOS mantra already?  But wait…I am just getting started! And if you are still on the fence about OPOS, let my next few posts lure you into this addictive world of pressure cookers, whistles, clean kitchens, delicious foods, effortless cooking and cleaning! Coming back to this post today. We get Mysore Pak twins in the market – same yet different. One has porous texture while the other is “watch me disappear the second you put me in the mouth“. We are looking at the latter today. But some keen chefinyou readers will tell me – but hey didn’t you already post Amma’s Soft Mysore Pa Recipe? Gosh! You people tear me up with happiness. But this is where my rant right at the beginning will make sense. That was my mom making the sweet, certainly not me. You know about sweet thumb? No? You know green thumb right? My mom is sweet thumbed while mine is probably black! She makes it look easy while my copycat attempts will make you stay away from kitchen! But armed with OPOS I am now thaumatin thumbed people! I can make sweets that look like these pictures. YES!

Can you see that slight ghee coated sheen on these delights? Does it speak to your senses? Does lack of teeth trouble you? Worry no more. These will speak to all your senses (and your neighbors!) and most importantly YOU will be making them on your own instead of calling Krishna Sweets ( replace with your favourite sweet shop) for your next delivery. If I looked like I was “high” when I was writing this – in a way, yes. It’s cos I feel like I pulled a Usain bolt.. finally! (...)
