Jeera goli

Jeera goli

It was my SIL  'M' , who had first introduced me to jeera golis and then each time i came back from India, i would come back with a few packets of these tangy n sweet golis! Then somewhere along the way , i lost interest in these and stopped buying them. Had bookmaked this recipe a longtime back , but only now got around to trying it out in my kitchen. Thanks Manisha for the recipe!:)

Ingredients:
Cumin seeds - 1 tbsp, amchur pwd - 2 tbsps, icing sugar - 5 tbsps, lemon juice - 1 tbsp, salt to taste.
For the sugar coating:
Icing sugar - 2 tbsps.
Method:

Dry roast the cumin seeds and powder. Take the cumin pwd, amchur pwd, salt , sugar and mix well. Then add the lemon juice and knead to form dough. Make tiny balls from the dough and roll in the powdered sugar ( 2 tbsps for coating) and place the balls on a plate and let dry at room temperature for 2 hours . The golis when being rolled out are soft, but they harden after sometime. Store these golis in an airtight jar and enjoy!!:))

 The golis are good for digestion and can be had after a heavy meal:)
