  1. Melt 1/2 cup margarine in a coated pan over medium heat. Add 1 cup whole wheat flour and stir constantly for 2-3 minutes, working it into a dough. If the mixture is too dry, add a bit more margarine.
  2. Fry the dough over medium heat for 5 minutes until it smells nutty.
  3. Mix 1/2 cup water with 1/2 cup sugar and add to the pan. Fry for 5 minutes more over medium heat, stirring constantly and breaking up the mixture until crumbly.
  4. Stir in the cardamom powder. Remove from heat and let sit, covered with a cloth, for 10 minutes.
  5. Serve with white bread and black tea, garnished with cardamom powder.
