|
1 cup | Peanut |

1 cup | Jaggery |
|
1 cup | Dry coconut |
|
1/2 cup | Poppy Seed |
|
1/2 cup | Sesame Seed |
|
1/2 cup | Ghee |
|
1/4 cup | Cardamom , powder |

Instructions
- 1 Dry roast the peanuts on medium heat until golden brown and let them cool. Remove the skins and coarsely crush them.
- 2 Grate the dry coconut and roast it lightly until aromatic.
- 3 Dry roast the poppy seeds and sesame seeds separately until they start to splutter.
- 4 In a pan, heat ghee and fry the cashew nuts and raisins until golden brown. Set aside.
- 5 In the same pan, add jaggery and a little water to make a thick syrup. Test by dropping a little syrup in water; it should form a soft ball.
- 6 Mix the roasted peanuts, coconut, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, cardamom powder, fried cashew nuts, and raisins into the jaggery syrup.
- 7 Stir the mixture well until all ingredients are coated with the syrup.
- 8 Grease a plate with ghee and spread the mixture evenly. Allow it to cool slightly.

Tips
Ensure the jaggery syrup reaches the right consistency to bind the ingredients well.
