Ingredients:
- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 1 cup jaggery
- ¼ tsp Green cardamom powder
- ¼ tsp Nutmeg powder
- ghee 1tsp
- 1/4 cup dry coconut grated
Method:
1. Roast the sesame seeds until golden brown.
2. Grind the sesame seeds to a coarse powder.
3. Heat the ghee and add jaggery with couple of tbsp of water until you get a thick syrup.
4. Grease a shallow plate with ghee to set the vadi in
5. Mix in the coarsely ground sesame seeds into the syrup.
6. Add cardamom powder and nutmeg powder and mix thoroughly.
7. Spread mixture evenly onto the plate and garnish it with dry grated coconut.
8. Cut diamond shapes before it cools down.
9. Allow it to cool and set and enjoy.
Tip:
The way this turns out depends a lot on what kind of jaggery you use.
If you use less sticky one, it comes out better.
Also, make sure your syrup is really thick before you add in the mixture otherwise it will stay moist and not harden enough
