Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Take one straight lauki (bottle gourd) otherwise, your lachha will not come out well.

* Step 2

Peel the lauki. Take one julienne peeler and make long lachhe. Make sure to use the only the green part of lauki. Your lachha should be green. Keep lachhas in a tray.

* Step 3

Take one thick thread and tie all lachhas from the middle and dip into water for 2-3 minutes.

* Step 4

Then take one wide pan and add sugar and water. Let the sugar melt properly. Then add a bunch of lachha and cook for 4-5 minutes from one side. After that turn it with the help of two big spoons supporting at the ends.

* Step 5

Cook these for 15-17 minutes but keep stirring it after 4-5 minutes repeatedly. When sugar dissolves and lachhas becomes transparent put the flame off and transfer it in a long plate.

* Step 6

Now they are very hot so keep spreading them with the help of a fork or spoon. When they become a little warm than with the help of your hands keep spreading them nicely. Keep them at room temperature and you will see that after some time they become a little hard. Now super delicious Gulab Kand or lauki ke Lacche are ready.

* Step 7

Tips - Take straight and a little ripe lauki then your lachha wiil become juicy. Tie the lachhas properly with the help of a thread. It is very important otherwise your lachhas will stick together and will not make long lachha. When you spread them make sure to do it with very soft hands.
