This is an authentic dish.

This needs a little bit practise, if not prepared with full care you don't get spongy texture inside.

Preparation time : 45 mins

Serves : 6 to 8

Ingredients :

Rice : 250 grms

Jaggary : 500 grms

(Rice : jaggary : water = 1 : 2 : 1)

water : 250 ml

Oil : 2 tbsp to 3 tbsp

Ghee : 2 tbsp to 3 tbsp

Coconut : 1/4 cup ( cut into small pieces )

Sesame seeds : 2 tbsp

Method :

Soak rice for 12 hours.

Grind it into a smooth paste using little water . 

(consistency  should be like dosa batter )

Keep it aside.

Cut coconut into small pieces and keep them aside.

Now take water and jaggary into a bowl.
Let the jaggary melt , one all jaggary is melted, strain it to remove and impurities.
Keep it aside.

Now heat a thick, heavy bottomed wide vessel.
(Preferably pressure pan)
Heat 2 tbsp of ghee and 2 tbsp of oil.
Once it is hot, add coconut and sesame seeds.
Saute them a bit, keep the flame on low heat.

Now take that jaggary water bowl, let it boil.
Once it is bubbling, add ground rice paste slowly by mixing it.

Continuously stir it and when you see a small paste like thing is forming at the bottom, transfer this immediately into the pressure pan which is having coconut pieces.
Mix it once.
Keep the flame on very low heat.

Wait till you see edge is browning or till you see small bubbles on top.

Cover it, if you are using pressure pan then don't put the whistle on.
Put it in very low flame.
Cook it for 30 minute.

After 30 minutes take the lid off.
Insert a tooth pick, if it comes out clean then it is done.
Let it cool down completely.
Turn it up side down.

Yummy yummy, mouth watering sweet is ready :)
Cut it into pieces and serve.

Enjoy your dish :)
