Submitted by anirudh on
Switch on the stove, place a thick bottom vessel. Put jaggery with 1/2 cup of water to dissolve and a pinch of salt. Once dissolves, strain in a strainer to remove the dirt/sand particles. Now fry rava using all the ghee and keep it aside. Mash the boiled channa dal using a woodden spatula or with hand (donot use mixer) Put a pan on stove, pour the jaggery syurp, once it becomes hot add the fried rava, mashed channa dal, grated coconut and mix well. When the water in mixture dries up and starts leaving the sides, add cardamom powder mix well and remove from the flame. Now make small lemon sized balls with this mixture and keep aside. Take maida flour, add haldi and mix well, add water and make a batter of bonDa/ bajji consistency (little thinner than the dosa batter). Dip each ball into the batter and deep fry in oil. Now SukrunDes are ready to serve. :) Note: Similar kind of unDes are made with sesame(till) seeds, groundnuts, etc
