Clean the sesame.

Dry roast the sesame in a pan . Cool and powder it in a mixer.

Add the powdered jaggery to this and run the mixer again so that it forms a homogenous mixture.

Roll into balls.

A very easy preparation yet again

My mom used to make chimmiri vundalu (in telugu) for naagula chavithi. I used to love them, not I can make them myself. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Dear Veena
How are you? I feel good that you have posted the recipe of a very traditional dish.It is my all time favorite. Actually I am sick of eating the bought out ones. One doesnt get good Jaggery, it is full of bleaching agent and flour too.
Anyway let me see if i can get some pure jagerry from a sugar cane farmer friend and make this secretly to give a surprise to my wife. Ha ha
Have a nice weekend
