📋 Ingredients List

Ingredient Group	Ingredients	Quantity (Approx.)
Nuts	Almonds (Badam), Cashews (Kaju), Walnuts	1/2 cup each
Seeds	Sesame seeds (Til), Flax seeds (Alsi)	1/4cup each
Seeds (Raw)	Chia seeds	2 tbsp (do not roast)
Base & Sweeteners	Makhana (Foxnuts) powder, Jaggery (Gur), Dates (Khajur)	1.5 cups makhana, 1/2cup jaggery, 1/2 cup pitted dates
Binding	Ghee	3-4 tbsp

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Roast the Nuts & Seeds

1. Makhana: Heat 1 tsp of ghee in a pan. Roast the makhana until they are crunchy. Let them cool and grind into a fine powder (if you don’t have pre-made powder).
2. Nuts: Add another tsp of ghee and roast the almonds, cashews, and walnuts on low heat until aromatic (about 3–4 minutes). Remove and let them cool.
3. Seeds: In the same dry pan, roast the sesame seeds and flax seeds for 2 minutes until they start to pop. Do not roast the chia seeds. ### Step 2: Grind Everything
4. Put the cooled nuts, sesame seeds, and flax seeds into a blender. Pulse them into a coarse powder. (Don’t over-blend, or the nuts will release too much oil and turn into butter).
5. Transfer this mix into a large bowl. Add the makhana powder and the raw chia seeds. Mix well.

Step 3: Prepare the Sweetener Base

1. Blend the pitted dates with 1-2 tablespoons of warm water to form a smooth paste.
2. In a pan, add 1 tbsp of ghee and melt the jaggery on low heat with 1 tbsp of water just until it dissolves. Add the dates paste to this and cook for 1 minute on low heat until combined.

Step 4: Mix and Shape

1. Pour the warm jaggery-date mixture into the bowl with the dry powder.
2. Add the remaining melted ghee.
3. Mix everything rapidly with a spoon (it will be hot!). Once it’s cool enough to handle, use your hands to mix thoroughly.

For Panjiri: You are done! Let the mixture cool completely and store it as a loose, nutritious powder.

For Laddoos: Take small portions of the warm mixture in your palms and press firmly to shape them into round laddoos.

💡 Quick Tips

• Binding Trouble? If the mixture feels too dry to shape into laddoos, add a teaspoon of warm melted ghee or a splash of warm milk (note: adding milk reduces shelf life).
• Storage: Store in an airtight container. Because of the dates, keeping them in the fridge will make them last longer (up to a month).
