    • Red rice - 1 1/2 cup
    • Jaggery - 3/4 cup 
    • White sesame seeds - 1/4 cup
    • Cashew - 1/4 cup 
    • Dry coconut - 1 cup (grated)
    • Cardamom powder - 1 teaspoon
    • Ghee - 1 tablespoon
    • Salt - a pinch 
    • Water as required

    Preparation Steps

    1. Take around one and a half cup of raw red rice rinse with water and wash 2-3 times.
    2. Drain the excess water and let it dry for a few minutes by spreading them on a white cloth.
    3. Heat a pan at low to medium flame and dry fry the red rice. Fry until it starts to puff up and pop. 
    4. Transfer it to a blender, grind it into fine flour and keep it aside.
    5. Dry roast white sesame seeds similarly, grind it into fine powder and keep it aside.
    6. Fry roughly chopped cashews in ghee until it turns light brown and keep this aside as well.
    7. In a different pan, add jaggery and water as required to immerse it in and let it melt.
    8. Transfer the melted jaggery to a fresh pan using a filter to remove any impurities. 
    9. Melt the jaggery until it starts to thicken and reach one string consistency.
    10. To test, take a small bowl of water and drop a few drops of jaggery syrup. Using the thumb and index finger check whether it has one string consistency.
    11. At this stage, add a pinch of salt, a cup of red rice flour, white sesame seeds powder, cardamom powder and roasted cashews with ghee.
    12. Mix the contents well and switch off the flame.
