Serves: 12
| Ingredients: |
| 1 cup Almond Flour (badam powder) |
| 1/3 cup Whole Wheat Flour |
| 1/2 cup Ghee (clarified butter) |
| 1/2 cup Jaggery, (if using hard jaggery, chop or grate it) |
| 1//2 teaspoon Cardamom Powder |
| Mixed Nuts (roughly chopped), optional |
Directions:
- If you are using hard jaggery, grate it or finely chop it.
Heat 1/2 cup ghee in a thick-based kadai (pan) over low-medium flame.- Once the ghee melts, add 1/3 cup whole wheat flour.
- Add 1 cup almond flour (badam powder).
- Mix well.
- Roast the flour until it turns golden, keep stirring continuously to prevent any burning. It will take approx. 7-8 minutes.
- Turn off the flame. Look at the color, it’s a perfect golden brown. Add 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder and 1/2 cup jaggery, (if using hard jaggery, chop or grate it).
- Mix well until the jaggery melts.
- Transfer the mixture to a deep tray (or a small square baking pan). Flatten the top surface with the backside of a spatula or bowl.
- Sprinkle roughly chopped mixed dry fruits over it. Press them gently.
- Let it set for around 30 minutes at room temperature. Cut it into small squares or diamonds when the sukhdi is a little warm.
- Once the sukhdi cools down completely, transfer it to an airtight container. Enjoy the sukhdi warm or cold as per your preference.
Tips and Variations:
- You can use hard or soft jaggery as per the availability. If you are using hard jaggery, finely chop or grate it.
- If you use only almond flour, sukhdi may turn crumbly. To prevent this, 1/3 cup whole wheat flour is added in the recipe.
