This is called the seven cup cake.
The sugar is 3 cups in the original recipe.
I find that 2 cups of sugar is more than enough.
You can add 3 cups if you want.

SEVEN CUP CAKE

Ingredients:
1 cup besan flour
1 cup grated coconut ( only the white part)
1 cup milk
1 cup ghee (little more if you like)
2 cups sugar


Method:
In a wok add a tbs of ghee.
Dry roast the besan till the raw small goes, cool.

In a heavy bottomed pan , add in the sugar, milk,
coconut and the besan, on a low flame cook stirring,
occasionally for about 20 minutes or until the mixture
starts to froth and will start to come off from the sides of the pan.

Slowly pour the rest of the ghee into the pan, while stirring
continuously.
Within few minutes the entire mixture will harden a bit,
and become thick.
Take off the stove and pour it onto a greased plate.
While it is still hot, draw the lines with a sharp knife to make
small squares.
Let it cool for about 20 minutes.
After it is cool you can take out the pieces.
