    Roast the main ingredient in ghee until golden and aromatic.

    Cook it soft with the required water or milk.

  3. 3

    Melt jaggery with a little water, filter the syrup and add it in.

    Finish with cardamom, ghee-roasted cashews and raisins.

சமையல் குறிப்பு

கருப்பட்டியை கரைத்து வடிகட்டிய பின் மாவில் சேர்க்கவும்; மண் இருக்கும்.

Melt and strain the karupatti syrup before mixing — palm jaggery always hides a little sand.
