Ingredients

1 Coconut
150 gms Jaggery

Instructions

Scrape the coconut and grind it further to get a fine texture
Take a heavy bottom pan and place it on low heat. Add the ground coconut and the jaggery in it and mix.
Cook it on low heat till you see the jaggery melt down completely. Keep stirring it continuously.
Now, continue cooking till the mix becomes sticky and starts to come together as a dough. It should take somewhere around 5-7 minutes to get that.
Turn off the heat and take the mix out in a mixing bowl. Allow it to cool down to room temperature.
Divide this mix into smaller portions and then roll them into smooth balls. Keep them in an air-tight container for a week. No need to refrigerate if the weather allows. Otherwise, keep it in refrgerator.
