Coconut Theratipal

How to Prepare

1. Grate 10 fresh coconuts to obtain fine coconut shreds.
2. Heat a heavy-bottomed pan on medium flame and add the grated coconut.
3. Stir continuously for 5-7 minutes until the coconut releases its aroma and turns slightly golden.
4. Add 5 kg of powdered jaggery to the pan and mix well.
5. Continue stirring the mixture on low-medium heat for 20-25 minutes until it thickens and starts leaving the sides of the pan.
6. Add 2 tablespoons of cardamom powder and mix thoroughly.
7. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly for 5 minutes.
8. Grease your hands with a little ghee and shape the mixture into small balls or flatten into squares while still warm.
9. Allow the shaped theratipal to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
