Preparation:
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a pan and fry cashews. Keep aside.
Heat 1 more tablespoon of coconut oil and add ragi flour. Fry it slightly on a medium flame until you get pleasant aroma.
Add in desiccated coconut and sauté for 1 minute. Keep aside.
Mix jaggery and water in a pan and boil.
