Total time
Ingredients (240 ml cup used)
- ½ cup of sweet raisins (make sure the raisins are sweet)
- 1 cup of pistachios or peanuts
- ½ tsp green cardamom powder
- 1 to 2 tsp. of ghee
How to make the recipe
-
Wash raisins in lot of water quickly and thoroughly, several times. This is done to remove the oil or stabilizers that are used to increase the shelf life.
-
Drain and pat dry them on cloth.
-
Fry these in 1 tsp ghee till they begin to puff up slightly.
-
Wash and dry roast the nuts, set aside to cool.
-
Powder the nuts to a fine texture or slightly coarse will do, set this aside.
-
Grind the raisins, cardamom powder in a blender to as smooth as possible without adding any liquid.
-
Add the nut powder to the raisin mix and grind to blend well, you will have a moist mix. I add few tiny chunks of nuts to this mix before i roll them.
-
Take small portions of this mix and roll them in your palm to give a ball shape.
-
If desired you can roll them in white sesame seeds or powdered sugar or coconut powder
-
Store these raisin nut balls in a dry and clean air tight jar. I do not know the shelf life, since in Singapore everything has a short shelf life. I have never stored them for more than 4 to 5 days. If refrigerated will last longer. Handle them with moist free hands.
