Notes
- Usually the measure of all the 3 ingredients is the same like if we take 1 cup kavuni rice then its 1 cup sugar and 1 cup coconut.But I usually reduce it as its too much of sweet taste for us.
- Ghee is just for flavour
- Usually white sugar is used you can replace it with cane sugar or jaggery.I used cane sugar.
