In a nonstick wok, roast sesame seeds (Til) on a medium flame till they are slightly toasted/golden in color (2mins) and Keep aside in a bowl (While roasting them, please keep stirring continuously as they tend to burn quickly).
Step 2
Now lightly roast the dry fruits* for 2-3mins to give them a crunchier taste and toasted flavor and keep aside in the same bowl as roasted sesame seeds. (*Incase using raisins or any dry berry – please don’t roast them, simply mix them into the bowl).
Step 3
In the same wok over medium flame, now add ½ water, jaggery and stir to make a smooth paste (takes about 3-4mins).
