- •¼ cup rose water
- •⅓ teaspoon ground cardamom
- •1 pinch saffron
- •½ cup butter

Instructions
- Bring water and sugar to a boil in a small pot, stirring until sugar dissolves into a syrup. Stir rose water, cardamom, and saffron into the syrup. Reduce heat to low; cover to keep syrup hot.
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir in flour until mixture is a smooth paste, about 1 minute. Cook, stirring constantly, until paste turns brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

- Spread mixture in a shallow bowl. Cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
