Wish you all happy thamizh new year - Villambi
This type sesame ball preparation will be made during celebration rituals and when praying certain god's. I watched making this in one of our family goddess praying. Only if you do this patiently the end result will be good. Now coming to this ball i tried making is little bit more healthy by including flax seed also. Actually it came out well. You can also try it out. Use 50 or 100 gm of the seeds each (sesame and flax) and try preparing.
The sesame is rich in calcium and flax seed in omega 3. We are using jaggery, cardamon and grated coconut for more flavor and goodness.
Ingredients:-
Sesame seeds - 100 gm (cleaned)
Flax seeds - 100 gm
Jaggery - jaggery syrup 1/2 cup (we will use only few tablespoons of jaggery)
Grated coconut - 1 tbsp
Broken cashew - 1 tbsp
ghee - 1/4 tsp
Preparation method:-
Dry roast the sesame seed in low flame (take care don't burn it). When it starts spluttering and nice aroma comes remove it and add flax seed.
Roast flax seed till it changes the color. When splutters transfer to another bowl. Leave it to cool.
Grind the roasted sesame and flax seed separately. After grinding mix both the powders well.
Melt the jaggery with water. Filter and remove the dirt (if any) and boil the syrup with grated coconut and cardamon to thick consistency (next to sticky consistency but less than 1 string consistency)
To the powdered sesame seed add cashew pieces (optional), ghee, tbsp of jaggery syrup and mix.
Try making small balls. If the syrup is not sufficient add some more syrup and make the balls.
Healthy, nutrition balls are ready to taste. Don't give more than one ball to eat because it is better to stay in limit.
Note: While make balls apply little ghee in your palms so that the mixture won't stick too much in your hand. It will be stick only you have to remove the mixture with a spatula or spoon from your palm.
