Its very very simple. Cut onions and fry with usual bhagar of rai , jeera, hing , turmeric powder. Add about a glass or half of water. When it comes to boil add salt, mirchi powder and then go on sprinkling besan and stirring continously with other hand , so as to avoid lumps. If u wamnt thick pithala add more besan till it solidifies. Sprinkle a little water so the lumps are not formed and close with a lid for a few minutes, add few drops of ghee(if required) and thats it.
You can add lasoon pieces when during frying onions, u can add methi or any pala say muli leaves etc during the same time. Adding curry leaves gives a nice taste.
