Panakam PopsicleÂ
IngredientsÂ
Water: 2 and 1/2 cups| Powdered Jaggery: 1/2 cup| Cardamom powder: 1/2 tsp| Dry ginger powder: 1/4 tsp| Pepper powder: 1/2 tsp| Lemon: 1/2| A tiny pinch of saltÂ
MethodÂ
- Take jaggery powder in a mixing bowl and add freshly crushed pepper, ginger powder and cardamom powder to it.Â
- Add lemon juice to it and mix wellÂ
- Jaggery will be dissolved completely. StrainÂ
- Now pour into popsicle molds and close with a lidÂ
- Keep in the freezer for 8 hours minimum or overnightÂ
- For easy demolding, take water in a bowl and dip each moldÂ
- Gently pull out the popsiclesÂ
NotesÂ
- I use powdered jaggery so it dissolved quickly. If you use crushed jaggery it takes a bit more time to get dissolved.Â
- Use freshly crushed pepper and cardamom for more flavourÂ
- The colour of the popsicles depends on the jaggery colourÂ
