Unknown said... I tried your recipe and it was fantastic. My husvand's a tamilian so I have never done anything like this before. I was kinda confused though while reading if you meant cook the rava in Jaggery water.. I was nervous to put Jaggery water in cooker so called my mother in law :)) But yeah, the recipe was really bang on. We all loved it including our 16mo old daughter. So, thank you!
