Procedure
In a thick bottom pan heat up 1 tsp ghee and fry cashew and almond slices. Once they turn golden color transfer them into a plate and keep aside. In the same ghee add grated pumpkin and fry for one or two minutes. Then add milk and cook until all the milk is evaporated. Keep stirring in between. When the milk is reducing in volume add milk powder and mix it well. Keep stirring.
When the milk is almost evaporated, add jaggery powder and mix it well. Jaggery will melt in and slowly the whole thing is going to come together and get thick. Once it is coming together, add ghee little by little and keep stirring. In between scrape the sides of the pan.
You will know that it is done when the mixture gets thick and leaving the pan. Turn off the stove. Transfer the mixture into the pre greased plate. Flatten it into a square shape with 1 - 1&1/2 inch thickness. Smooth out the surface. Garnish with nuts and press them down slightly with spatula. Let it cool down for an hour. Cut them into your desired shapes. Enjoy them!! Please don't forget to give me your feed back.
