  4. Add roasted Melon seeds, cardamom powder and coconut into the sugar syrup and mix well.

Note:


  • The consistency of sugar syrup must be perfect otherwise either the paag/paak will not set at all or become so hard.
  • Mixing and spreading process should be done quickly otherwise, it may harden before spreading.
