    • Jaggery Syrup Consistency - Take jaggery and water in a heavy bottom pan and heat till jaggery melts, Strain this and take it back in the same pan. Now add in cardamom powder and bring it to a boil. now cook till it gets hard ball stage. When you take some syrup and pour it in a bowl of cold water, you should be able to gather the syrup into a ball and it gets hard ball and make a "donk" sound when you drop in a steel plate.

      Mam, my doubt is regarding jaggery syrup. When I poured some syrup in a plate, it dissolved. Later in few minutes, when i poured again, i was not able to gather those syrup. It attached with the plate. Did i overcook or need to cook more?
