  4. Then reduce to medium flame for 6-8 mins.

  6. Sieve the jaggery syrup before mixing with flour
  7. Now pour half the syrup on the flour and mix with spoon or using hands.
  8. Mix properly and rest of the syrup and mix. Do not knead too much just mix so that dough comes together.
  9. Now add ghee and knead for a few seconds.
  10. Take about one and half tbsp of dough and shape in form of peda.

  2. The final colour will mostly depend on the color of the jaggery
  3. Do not make very thick syrup, it should be flowing consistency.
  4. if you do not have cardamom powder, just add 4-5 cardamoms while making syrup as we will sieve the syrup anyways.

  6. Dont add syrup while its too hot, let it become lukewarm.
  7. Store in refrigerator to increase shelf life.
