2) Heat a pan. Add Ghee and ground moong dal and keep stirring until it gets nice dark orange color. Stir over medium heat for 10 minutes. Then add hot milk little by little and stir nicely. Add Almond slices, and remaining milk. Cover and cook over low heat. Stir continuously, so that it wont get burn at the bottom. Afterward, sprinkle some water, stir, cover and cook. Repeat this until dal gets cooked.

Note:
1) Instead of water (step 2) you can use mixture of Water and milk.
2) Steam cook properly. Dal should get cook completely. Do not make hurry to add sugar. Once the sugar is added, you can't make any changes. So cook ground dal completely before adding sugar.
3) Keep adding water or water + milk until ground dal gets cooked. There is no exact measurement for it.
