then in a thick pan jaggery with a qr cup of water to be taken and heated.when the jaggery dissolves it has to be filtered to remove any dust or impurities. later the jaggery syrup should be heated to such a level that it forms a thick syrup.( when you drop the syrup with a spoon it should drip in two strings. another method of trying is when you
put a little jaggery syrup in a little water it should not dissipate but should stand in the water like a bead.that is the stage at which you have to switch off the stove) .remove the jaggery syrup and add little by little to the dhal powder till all the syrup and powder get mixed. add cardoman powder and ghee roasted cashew and raisins. this should be kept aside till it is totally cooled and then transfer in a air tight container. this will stand even for 3 days minimum though it is made of dhal.
