Notes and Tips
- If you wish to substitute Jaggery Powder with brown sugar, white sugar, or palm sugar, add a lesser quantity first, taste it, and adjust the quantity accordingly. I do like my desserts to be mildly sweet, so you can add more or less sugar to suit your palate.
- The rice to water ratio is 1:3, for 1 cup of rice use 3 cups of water.
