We all have lots of childhood memories and when
it comes to food surely everyone has their favourite food cooked by mom. I have
my list of favourite too not just childhood but now also, so whenever get the
chance simply relish "Mom's Specialty".
Coconut panjiri !!
I remember mom always use to
make it during the fasting time as it is quite healthy and full of dry fruits.
Ingredients
Dry Coconut- 1( Grated)
Almond-10-15
Cashew nut-10-15
Raisin- handful
Makhana(Fox nut)- 1 cup
Sugar-
1/2 cup or less
Water -1 cup
Cardamom(Elaichi)-5
Just captured all the ingredients for this recipe .
1. Dry roast Almond, Cashew nut and makhana ,
let them cool for a while and later crush them . You can add the dry fruits
without crushing also.
2. Boil water ,sugar and cardamom for 2-3
minutes and no need to make the syrup thick , just let it boil for sometime.
3 . Dry roast coconut for 5 minutes on low
flame and then add the dry fruits to it .
4. Now add the sugar syrup and mix it
well with the dry mixture.
5. Cook for 5-7 minutes so that syrup is well
absorbed by the dry ingredients. At this point if you find it dry you can add
1-2 spoon of desi ghee(optional)
6. Cool the mixture and store it at room
temperature.
