Ingredients
- 1 and ½ cups pori / puffed rice
- ¼ cup whole peanuts
- 2 tablespoon chutney dal
- 2 tablespoon powdered jaggery
Instructions
- Roast peanuts until crisp, set aside.
- Measure and get ready with all your ingredients.
- In a mixing bowl, add pori, then add chutney dal, roasted peanuts.
- Then add powdered jaggery. Mix it well.
- Offer Pori Kadalai to God on Saraswathi Pooja and serve!
Notes
- Use fresh crisp pori – I have used freshly bought pori. If yours feel soft, dry roast for few minutes to make it crunchy again.
- Roast peanuts slowly – I usually roast peanuts in low flame so it does not burn. This brings nice aroma and makes the mixture taste better.
- Powder jaggery fine – I have powdered jaggery very fine so it mixes evenly. If you add big pieces, it will not spread properly.
- Mix while warm – I like to mix the pori and peanuts while it is still slightly warm so jaggery stick lightly and coat well.
- Serve immediately – I usually serve it soon after mixing. If you keep for long, pori starts becoming soft and lose that crunch.
