Peanut Flax seeds Ginger Chikki


Ingredients 

1) Peanuts - 1 Cup 
2) Ginger - 5-20 gms
3) Flax Seeds - 1 Cup
4) Jaggery - 2 Cups
5) Milk Cream - 2 Tea Spoons
6) Elaichi (Cardamom) - 2 Pieces

Procedure

1) Take the Ginger (add a bit more ginger if you like ginger flavor), 2 Elaichi, and little brown sugar (same quantity as ginger) (or Jaggery powder or grated Jaggery) and blend this into a paste. Keep it aside

2) Roast Peanuts and Flax Seeds separately. Let them cool and make them into a coarse powder. Do not blend peanuts too much as they release oil

3) Take a pan, switch on the stove (medium flame) - Add some (2 teaspoons or 1 table spoon)  milk cream (Meegada in Telugu or Malai in Hindi) and add to the pan. When the cream starts to melt and oozes out the butter /ghee add the ground ginger , Elaichi sugar paste and saute it for 3-5 mins

4) Once the ginger is cooked, add Jaggery 2 cups (equal quantity of the nuts that we are using for the recipe), little water, and keep stirring till we get the thick Jaggery syrup ( 2 string consistency)

5) Add ground peanut and flax seeds to the syrup and thoroughly mix

6) Add this mixture to a greased plate and let it cool
