pori-urundai (puffed-rice balls)
Challenge: You can make this delicious and healthy sweet snack in just 10 minutes!!!
Boil 1.5 cups of jaggery until it becomes frothy and like a very soft ball.
Add this to a bowl of puffed rice, sprinkle some cardamom powder. Mix well, quickly.
Apply ghee on palms and shape mixture into balls
If that doesn’t work for you, just grease a plate, pour the mixture into it, then cut into desired shape once a little cool (not cold though). press to make it tight.
Eat right away, after offering it to God
Or store it in an air-tight container till it gets spotted by someone
