Ingredients :
Freshly grated coconut : 1 cup
Sugar : 3/4 cup
pinch of cardomom
1 tsp ghee
First grind the grated coconut in a mixer so that it would help to form pieces
Next grease a plate with a little ghee so that you can pour the mixture in it
Next add little water just so that the sugar gets dissolved approx half the amount of sugar to the sugar in a pan and keep mixing it.
Bring it to a 1 string consistency , first touch some cool water and just touch a the corner of the big spoon with which you are mixing the sugar. It will approximately take about 10 to 15 mins to reach this consistency.
Then add the freshly grated coconut to this and keep mixing continuously so that it forms like a ball.
Then pour this mixture into a greased plate. allow it cool for a few mins and then cut into pieces.
I got about 12 pieces with a small cup of grated coconut. I had used only one half of the coconut since this was my first trial. I have seen people adding condensed milk into this mixture but the original recipe is made only this way.
