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 ;-)
