Ragi Pidi Kozhukkattai

Healthy Pidi Kozhukkattai - Ragi

Hai! Friends,

I tried to make some sweet for this Navarthri, and landed up in this healthy Pidi Kozhukkattai.



Ingredients

Ragi Flour (Finger Millet)  -  1 1/2 cup
Jaggery (Powdered)  -  1 1/4 cup
Cashew nuts  - 10
Raisins (Dried Grapes)  -  10
Ghee  -  2 tbsp.
Cardamom Powder  -  1/2 tsp
Salt  -  1 pinch
Water   -  3/4 cup

* Flour : Jaggery : Water  =  1 1/2 : 1 : 3/4
* As I like more sweet, I added extra Jaggery.

Method

Fry Cashew nuts, Raisins and Ragi flour in Ghee and keep aside.

Add water to Jaggery powder and filter it for impurities and bring to boil.

Add salt.

Add fried flour to the boiling jaggery  slowly. Take care that no lumps are formed.

Add cardamom powder and mix well.

Take it off from heat and now the mixture will be thick like ordinary Kozhakkatai Maavu.

Leave it for few minutes, so that it comes to cool.



Make medium sized balls and arrange it in Idli Cooker and cook for 8 minutes.



Now the Ragi - Healthy Pidi Kozhakkattai is ready to serve.



Have a nice day!
