1/4 cup cashew nuts( fried in ghee)
1-1/2 cups water

Method:
  1. Melt the ghee in a heavy bottomed pan on medium heat; add both the ragi and wheat flours into the ghee and stir them along with the ghee on low heat until you get a roasted aroma.
  2.  In another sauce pan; dissolve the water and sugar. Stir in the cardamom powder to this. 
  3. After about 10 minutes and the roasted aromas come out, add in the hot sugar water mixture to the four mix and stir continuously for about 2 minutes or till the water is all absorbed into the flour.
  4. Once absorbed, add a tablespoon of more ghee and keep stirring for another 5 minutes until you get the flavors and the right texture.
