1/2
cup
almonds
roughly chopped
3/4
cup
pistachios
roughly chopped
1
cup
jaggery

tbsp
ghee
1/4
cup
water
1/2
tsp
cardamom powder
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200 F. When preheated, roast the nuts for 8-10 minutes.
Once the nuts are roasted, add ghee, water, and jaggery to a nonstick pan over medium high heat.
Constantly stir the jaggery until it is melted and starts to caramelize.
While the jaffery is boiling, constantly stir until the syrup starts to thicken for about 6-8 minutes.
Reduce the flame to low, mix in the nuts and cardamom powder. Stir until the nuts are coated completely.
Pour the nut mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper, and cover with another sheet of parchment paper.
Use your hands (with oven mitts or a towel) to press and flatten the mixture. Use a rolling pin to even the chikki out.
Let the chikki cool, and then break into pieces with your hands.
Enjoy!
