Transfer the dal to a nonstick pan .

Add the grated jaggery  , mash and mix well .

Cook on medium flame .

The mixture will become loose as the jaggery melts .

Add elaichi pwdr + nutmeg pwdr and mix well .

Stir and cook till it thickens and the mixture leaves the side of the pan  . [be careful it will stick at the bottom ]

TEST – keep a spoon standing in the centre of the mixture ,if it stands firmly means the puran is done . [chk the video ]
