Mohanthal is a sweet fudge made from roasted gram flour and ghee made more often during Diwali. Diwali cannot start or end without this sinful mithai. This is another one of my mother in laws recipes which her family and her friends rave for. They would say “We follow your recipe to the T and even then we can’t get it like you”. Some say it’s the hand and I say it’s the love with which you made a dish.
