One of my favourite sweet is peanut chikki..whenever i go to Indian grocery, we always used to pick these mittai..everyone at home like to have them..last time when i went to indian grocery, i took a packet of raw peanuts, thought of making chutneys..back home i tried it out as kadala mittai..no wonder they vanished within few minutes..i never thought i can prepare them very easily..here we go..
1cup Jaggery
1 1/2cup Roasted Peanuts
1tsp Cardamom powder
1pinch Salt
2tsp Rice flour
Heat 1/4cup of water n add the jaggery in a thick bottomed pan...heat it in medium flame until the jaggery get well dissolved...strain the jaggery water with a strainer, this helps to omit the mud n other impurities presents in the jaggery...
Heat now in high flame, they will start bubbling vigorously...stir them continously, once they turn thick, just put a drop of the jaggery in cold water n roll them, if u r able to roll them, its perfect to add the roasted peanuts n cardamom powder as well as salt..add everything n stir them well...
Prepare a plate, sprinkle the rice flour , now pour the peanut n jaggery mixture to the plate..take a small ball n roll them in our palm..let them cool n arrange them in air tightened box..
Yummy Kadala Mittai!!!!!

for wat r we using salt n rice flour? i tot we can substitute sugar for jaggery.... can we?
i read tis recipe somewhere n bookmarked to try.
Rice flour helps hot jaggery not to get stick with the plate instead of greasing i used rice flour n for salt, they will enhance the taste, i usually add a pinch of salt while preparing any sort of sweet dishes, yea can do very well with sugar, but i prefer jaggery...
