Preparation Steps
- Take a pan and dry roast one cup of peanuts at a low flame
- Peel off the skin and grind these peanuts coarsely.
- Add cardamom powder, mix well and keep it aside.
- In a pan add one cup of jaggery and a little water to melt.
- Once it is melted into a syrup transfer it to another fresh pan by using a filter.
- Let it boil at low to medium flame and keep stirring until it thickens.
- It has to attain hard or candy consistency. To test this take water in a small plate and add half a teaspoon of this syrup. Try rolling the jaggery and if the syrup turns into a hard ball then the consistency is right.
- Lower the flame and add the crushed peanuts.
- Mix the contents well into a slightly thick loose dough.
- Meanwhile grease a flat surfaced plate or tray with ghee or oil and keep it ready.
- Once it has mixed well turn off the flame and transfer it to the plate.
