Ingredients

Ginger Pieces-1 cup

Sugar-1 1/4 cup

Water-1 cup

Water for cooking -3 cup

Salt-2 pinch

Method

Peel and wash ginger thoroughly..

Try to take tender ginger ,I mean less fibrous..

Cut the ginger into desired shape like cubes,stripes or oval … (dont make too thin ,otherwise if u bite u cant feel the ginger than sugar )

Then take a pan and add ginger pieces along with 1 1/2 cup of water ..Boil for 10 minutes..

Strain (if u are using good water , dont throw , u can use it for making tea)

Again add water and boil for another 10 minutes ..

Strain and keep aside ..

Take a non stick pan ,add these cooked ginger along with 1 1/4 cup of sugar,salt and 1 cup water ..

Cook for 30 minutes in medium flame …By that time u can see the ginger to be translucent …

Pour some sugar in a bowl,take the ginger from sugar syrup ,and put along with the sugar

Mix well ,sugar must be coated with all the ginger pieces nicely…Then place each candied ginger into a wax paper allow to dry for 1 hour ..

After that u can keep ur inchi mittayi in a air tight container and enjoy….(u can preserve the ginger sugar syrup and use in future while baking ,making tea ..)

So hope u will tr out this soon
