Jeedipappu Pakam:
Kaaju Chikki. Munthiri paruppu Burfi. Jeedipappu Chikki.
Hyderabad, legendary sweet shop 'G.Pulla Reddy's special Jeedi pappu Pakam'!!! No one would have missed it at Hyderabad!! My friend Kranthi introduced me to this sweet! Myself and my friend Balaji used to stop at this shop...before leaving home(Tamil Nadu)! I never failed to carry this awesome sweet. One important thing about 'Pulla Reddy is, he started his life from zero, started as a street vendor. Few wise words about his product: they were pure, perfect and he never lied about his product. Never-lying about a product...thats pretty much missing in these days, business, right!
Ingredients:
Cashewnuts 2 cups
Jaggerry 1/2 cup
Sugar 1/2 cup
Cardamom seeds powder 1/4 spoon
Ghee 1/4 cup.
Method:
In a wide wok, heat jaggery plus sugar with about 1/4 cup of water. Bring them to syrup like consistency.
Add cardamom seeds powder. Now stir-in cashewnuts, once the syrup reduces and nuts get crispier, remove from heat.
In a wide tray/plate, smear ghee. Add the cashew nuts content in it! Place them in the fridge for few hours.
