Ingredients

  • 2.5 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/8 tsp saffron powder (optional, or use yellow food colour. (I wanted saffron colour chenna disc and hence have used saffro colour))

  • 4 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp ghee (to grease the palms)
  • 2 l water
  • 2 cup sugar (I have used raw sugar. It makes the chenna disc brownish in colour. (for bright colour use white sugar))
  • 4 cardamom pods
  • 3/4 cup sugar (I have used raw sugar. You can use white sugar and adjust the amount of sugar as per the sweetness desired.)
  • 1 tsp cardamom powder
