Directions
Prepare Peanuts: Roast 1 cup of peanuts until they turn crispy. Remove the outer cover and coarsely grind them. Set aside.
Prepare Jaggery Syrup: In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee. Add 1 cup of jaggery and melt it over medium heat. Cook the jaggery for about 5-8 minutes until it forms a perfect syrup consistency. To check if the syrup is ready, take a bowl filled with water and drop a few syrup drops into it. If the drops become crunchy and hard, the jaggery syrup is ready.
Combine Ingredients: Turn off the flame and add the roasted peanuts (and optional sesame seeds) to the jaggery syrup. Mix everything thoroughly.
Shape the Chikki: Transfer the mixture onto a plate or a flat surface (chakala). Using a rolling pin, spread the mixture evenly to your desired thickness. Cut it into pieces while it's still warm.
Let it Cool: Allow the Peanut Chikki to cool completely. This will help it become crunchy and ready to enjoy.
