Peanut chikki

Only three ingredients and such a nice crunchy peanut chikki is ready!! These peanut chikki bites have superb health benefits and specially good to be eaten during winters. I make random pieces of my chikki and pick pieces as per my mood for satiating my sweet cravings.

Ingredient

Food ration :

3-4 persons

Cooking time :

25 minutes

1 cup

dry roasted peanuts

1 cup

grated jaggery

1/2 tsp

ghee

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a microwave safe bowl, microwave peanuts for 2 minutes 30 seconds. Let the peanuts cool, then remove its peel. Also grate jaggery and keep it ready.

* Step 2

Next in a pan put ghee. Add the grated jaggery.

* Step 3

Stir and cook the jaggery. Jaggery starts melting. It bubbles and also changes colour to a nice brown colour. You can add a pinch of salt here and mix.

* Step 4

Now to check whether jaggery is ready or not, take few drops of the melted jaggery and put into a bowl of normal water. If it immediately takes shape and gives a crusty sound upon eating or breaking, you know that jaggery is ready. Immediately put the roasted peanuts into the jaggery.

* Step 5

Mix well and immediately transfer into a greased plate or silicon dish or greased butter paper. Let it cool and set. Before it sets, take a greased knife and make marks, so that upon cooling you can cut the chikki from there. But I make random pieces of my chikki.
