Dry roast the sesame seeds in a warm pan until toasted. Remove from pan and set aside.
In the same pan, heat ghee and jaggery.
Heat the jaggery in the pan to hardball stage. It should foam up. If you place a drop in water to cool and remove it, it should maintain its shape and be firm. If you bend it, it should snap.
Add sesame seeds and mix well.
Transfer to a cutting board with parchment paper. Spread the bittle by patting it with the back of a greased measuring cup, or rolling it out with a rolling pin.
