chikki
If you have a sweet-tooth like my husband, then chikki is probably the most easy-to-make and tasty-to-eat sweet ….yummy :) Here I have used only groundnuts. Cashews, almonds and a mixture of all the above can be used.
Ingredients
- Groundnuts - one and half cup
- Sugar - about one cup
- Ghee - 2 teaspoons
Method
- Roast the groundnuts in a kadai on a medium flame.After it cools, rub off the skin and crush lightly with hand
- Grease a plate with ghee and set aside
- Melt the sugar in a thick bottomed kadai over a very low flame.
- When it has melted and turned slightly golden, remove from the flame and add the nuts while stirring briskly.
- Quickly pour into the greased plate and cut into small squares
Preparation time: 15 minutes
