KAJU DHIYA

This is my first attempt to make a kajju dhiya !! One of my special innovation for this diwali !!!


INGREDIENTS :

1 cup cashews

1 cup sugar

Food colour

Raisins for decoration

7 tbsp ghee


METHOD :

* Soak the cashews for 2 hours and grind it into a thick paste .

* In a kadai mix the cashews and sugar , heat the kadai and mix till a lump is formed in the middle

* Divide it into two portions and to one portion mix the food colour ( I used yellow colour)

* Make a diya out of the uncoloured portion ( like a cup shaped diya )

* Fill out the center part with the coloured cashew lump .

* Decorate it with the raisins

* If possible u can wrap it with the silver foil paper

* Celebrate the diwali with these special dhiyas !!!
