Remove the nel skin (the husk) from the pori and make it ready.
Fry coconut bits in ghee till golden, add this and fried gram dal to nel pori. Mix well and set aside.
Measure jaggery and add it in a pan, add water and dissolve it well.
Heat it up for 2mins just for the jaggery to get dissolved. Strain to remove impurities.
Heat it up again and keep cooking, add cardamom powder.
Consistency check : Keep a separate plate ready filled with little water. Take a drop of jaggery syrup and put it in water, it should stand firm and not dissolve. This is enough no need to check rolling and all.
When this consistency is reached, add cardamom powder, dry ginger powder, pori and switch off. Mix well so that the syrup coats the pori evenly. Let the mixture cool down then later spread in a plate.
Store Karthigai Pori in airtight container and enjoy!
