Ingredients

  • 1 cup grated or crushed Jaggery
  • ¾ cup water

Instructions

  • Add 1 cup grated or crushed jaggery to a sauce pan with ¾ cup water.
  • Heat on a low heat until the jaggery completely melts. Stir well.
  • Filter the jaggery syrup with a strainer to remove impurities.
  • Boil it on a low to medium heat until the jaggery syrup turns thick and sticky. Keep stirring to ensure the syrup does not catch the bottom.
  • To check if it's done, you can check if the syrup lightly coats the back of the spoon. Turn off the flame once this stage is attained.
  • Cool and store the jaggery syrup in a clean, dry glass jar until use.
