Mysore Pak

Gram flour, sugar and an unreasonable amount of ghee, cooked until it sets porous and melts on contact. Invented in the Mysore palace kitchen.

The soft kind and the hard kind are different sweets. Try the soft one first.

Where to try it

Invented in this city's palace kitchen and named after it, the ghee-drenched original is nothing like the dry cubes sold elsewhere.
