During festivals we use puffed rice for neivedyam. Especially for KARTHIGAI this is a must.
- Ingredients:
- Puffed rice/Pori….3 to 3.5 cups
- Jaggery…..1 cup
- Ghee…..1 Tbs
- Cardomom powder
Method:
- In a pan first add jaggery add very little water and allow it to melt.Filter the dirt.
- Again keep the jaggery and boil it
- The consistency should be single string.Another tip is that when u put in a plate of water it should not dilute.you roll it in your hand it will become a ball.
