Ingredients:



Rice - 1/2 Kg

Drain the water completely and spread the rice in a newspaper and allow ti to dry 75%

Dry grind  the rice and seive for fine powder 

In a pan put the jaggery and add a little water. 

When  jaggery dissolves completely  in water filter the jaggery  syrup from dust 

and  make  thick  syrup.
