Chimili Urundai


Chimili is a sweet made with white sesame seeds. Generally this is made on a friday of Navarathri as an offering to goddess Lakshmi.So this goes in as my entry for day 4 of BM#5 by Srivalli.

INGREDIENTS

White Sesame seeds 1 cup

Jaggery (powdered) 1 cup

PREPARATION


Clean the sesame.

Dry roast the sesame in a pan . Cool and powder it in a mixer.

Add the powdered jaggery to this and run the mixer again so that it forms a homogenous mixture.

Roll into balls.

A very easy preparation yet again

  11. Dear Veena
    How are you? I feel good that you have posted the recipe of a very traditional dish.It is my all time favorite. Actually I am sick of eating the bought out ones. One doesnt get good Jaggery, it is full of bleaching agent and flour too.
    Anyway let me see if i can get some pure jagerry from a sugar cane farmer friend and make this secretly to give a surprise to my wife. Ha ha
    Have a nice weekend
