- Sift besan into a large bowl. Add pinch of baking soda and 1/2 cup and 3 tablespoons water and mix to form a free flowing batter. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes and then remaining 1 tablespoon water and mix. The batter is now ready. Heat oil or ghee in a kadai on medium-high heat. Place the ladle 3 to 4 inches above the surface of oil. Once oil is hot, pour batter into the ladle, do not spread by spoon. Let it fall on its own. Move the ladle around the kadai as the batter falls. Fry for 30 to 40 seconds, do not over cook. Remove the boondi immediately from hot oil. For the next batch, wash your ladle and wipe it dry. Keep all the fried boondi on a plate. To make the sugar syrup, heat 1 cup sugar with 3/4 cup water on medium heat. Add food color. Let the sugar dissolve. Then let it boil for 3 minutes. Add the cardamom powder and also add whole cloves. Turn off the heat and add the fried boondi. Mix well. Cover the pan and let the boondi sit in the pan until it soaks all the sugar syrup. Stir the boondi every 1 hour or so. Let sit overnight. Serve.
