  1. The recipes posted on Veg Recipes of India are always easy to make and the ingredients are all easily available. My first site to visit for veg recipes is always this one. Thank you Dassanna

  2. Awesome✊, instead of buying from outside, really making chikki at home is not so difficult, and it’s all bcoz of you mam, thanks for the mouth-watering recipe.5 stars

  3. Hi , your recipe is yummy.. My chikki has been just like jaggery itself.. where did I go wrong.. ? Did I cook it too much?5 stars

    1. priyanka, the jaggery has been cooked too much and thus it has become crumbly. whenever sugar or jaggery gets overcooked they become powdery and crumbly.

  4. Thank you so much for the recipe. I followed the recipe exactly as explained.
    I put the mixture on a glass cutting board, and the Chikki pieces would not come off of the board. I had greased the glass board well.
    Can you please help?

    Thanks.5 stars

    1. i guess spreading chikki mixture on a glass board will make it stick to it. best is to use a metal pan (steel or aluminium) or a butter paper, aluminium foil or parchment paper. i don’t know how you will remove the chikki pieces now. try to use a wooden spatula and remove the chikki pieces so that the glass surface is not scratched. let the chikki pieces cool completely before you remove them.

  5. I live in an area where jaggery is difficult to find. Can I use regular white sugar, or brown sugar instead? This looks so good; I’d like to make it for a dear friend.5 stars

    1. yes you can use white sugar or brown sugar easily. just cook it till the syrup reaches a hard ball stage. you can also use a candy thermometer for checking the hard ball stage.

  6. Hi Dassana thanks for the recipe.. i tried the chikki but it came out very sticky can u plz tell me where did i go wrong.. did i cook the syrup less? Thanks in advance5 stars

    1. poonam, the syrup has cooked less. thats why the stickiness. just add some water in the chikki and melt again. then continue to cook till the right consistency.

  7. Dear Dassana,
    Thank you for posting in such detail with pics. I tried it out and it came out just great. My colleagues still don’t believe I made it and suspect it to be purchased. Your tip to check the brittleness of the jaggery caramel was spot on. Thank you very much. Keep posting !!
