Peanut Jaggery Brittle (Gur Moongphali Ki Chikki)
- 1/4 cups Water
- 1/2 cups Jaggery, Grated
- 1 cup Roasted Skinless Peanuts (Moongphali), Slightly Crushed
- 1/2 teaspoons Cardamom Powder (Elaichi)
- 1 teaspoon Grated Fresh Ginger
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1/4 cups Whole Green Cardamom, For Garnish (optional)
- In a saucepan over medium heat, add water and jaggery. Keep stirring until jaggery dissolves and you have a thick paste-like consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the crushed peanuts, cardamom powder, ginger, and salt. Continue stirring to combine everything well.
- Remove from heat and ladle onto a greased pan. (Caution: This is an extremely hot and sticky paste, so be very, very cautious and don't touch it with your hands.) Using the same ladle, press the mixture into a thick/thin (your preference) layer.
- Place pan into the fridge for 1 hour or till the mixture solidifies. Once the mixture has solidified, break it into desired shapes and serve cold, garnished with whole cardamom.
- Stored in an airtight container for up to 2-3 weeks.
