Sesame gajak recipe with easy steps to prepare healthy snack at home. This is a dry desi confectionery (brittle) prepared with jaggery and sesame seeds (Til).
Gajak is usually prepared during winter as it is said to prevent us from cold. With Sesame (Til in Hindi) and jaggery, it has a good nutritional value.
With Diwali and winter coming up some may be looking for healthier Diwali sweets, so posting this. Gajak is also made for Makar Sankranti, Lohri festival.
Simple ingredients make up this easy and quick snack.
See Recipe card for full list and quantities.
2. After that, take a pan and start roasting it in medium heat.
3. It will start to pop after a minute or so. Keep stirring constantly for even roasting.
4. Once you see golden sesame seeds here and there you can transfer to a plate for cool down. Make sure all are roasted well (stir well to ensure this)
5. Then in the same kadai, add jaggery powder, water.
6. Continue by stirring to dissolve the jaggery. Keep the flame only in low.
Keep a bowl of water in the side to check syrup consistency. When it starts to boil and becomes frothy, add ghee and mix.
7. Add couple of drops to the water and check.
8. First, it will be soft. Then you will be able to take out the string but it bends.
9. Continue heating and checking. The correct stage is when you pour a little syrup in water, it should harden and you should be able to take out. It should break crisp. This is what we are looking for.
10. Beyond this, the syrup will get burnt, so be careful while checking, you can even switch off the flame while checking.
Add cooking soda and mix briskly.
11. The syrup will become slightly pale with micro bubbles.
12. In low heat itself, add sesame seeds and mix quickly.
13. When all the seeds mix and forms a mass switch off.
14. Then transfer the mixture immediately to greased platform.
15. Put the butter paper over it and roll it using rolling pin.
16. Do it gently first to spread out and then press swiftly to roll out thin.
17. After that, make impressions using knife (no need to cut and take out) as desired.
18. It gets cooled so fast, so you have to act quickly otherwise it will harden or become brittle.
As it cools you can easily take out the gajak and finally break in the lines.
Stays good for a week in room temperature. Perfect to enjoy as after meal snack.
I did this last year in an Instagram live, so tried several times before. Here are some points to note before making.

Diwali, the festival of festivals, brings joy and light to the family with crackers, dress and delicious sweets, savories and food. I have presented an extensive range of tested traditional recipes in this post for you to choose and make savories & snacks for Diwali.
Diwali Snacks / Savoury : Savories brings the festival and ends the festival! Yes – we usually start making savories a week in advance and light up the mood for festivity. I recall when Murukku or some savory used to be part of my lunch box before and after Diwali for nearly 10 days! We make them in batches and reserve a portion of flour for making it on Diwali eve as most of the times the savories get over before Diwali! As savory initiates the festival, it ends the festival too – when the savory stock gets over, it symbolizes the festival is officially declared over at our home.
I have posted 25+ Murukku options, 10+ Sev / Pakoda varieties, 15+ Mixture / Chivda and special savories and 10+ snack options in this collection of savory / snacks recipes for Diwali. Additionally, I have posted some snacks & appetizer recipes for friends and family get together during Diwali!
Basics to keep in mind while cooking savory: After choosing the savoury you are going to make for Diwali, following are the basic things to keep in mind while cooking it
Safety first : I have listed some of the near miss accident scenarios while cooking in order we celebrate a safe Diwali.

Suggest to serve a mid-size portion of savory along with Diwali sweet for guests and make it unlimited & open stock at Dining Table to relish them anytime for the family! Suggest to make Diwali chooranamto digest the overloads!
Refrigeration is not neededfor Diwali snacks. They keep good for nearly a month, hence make and share lots!Always store in air tight containers to maintain the crispiness.
Murukku, Ribbon Pakoda and Kara Boondi are easy, common snacks for Diwali. Kara Boondi goes well with sambar rice and curd rice – so you can skip making curry on the next day of Diwali.
Diwali Leghyam aids in the digestion after the huge variety of sweets, savouries and food intake. You can find the recipe here.
While the options range from the easy 30 minutes recipes to 90 minutes recipes, my choice goes with one Murukku variety and one of the Sev / Chivda / Mixture variety. This year I am planning to make the Mullumurukku and seepu seedai!
It is available in the local shops dealing with vessels. Also available in Amazon and Flipkart. If there is no option to get them, make it your own style with the available appliances.
