Dry roast fried gram, sesame, cashew nuts and almonds one by one separately and keep aside.

Grind fried gram, sesame, cardamom and cloves into nice powder.
Coarsely grind cashews and almonds.
Then add ghee in the same vessel and roast thinai flour till its aroma comes out.
Now add the ground powders, pounded jaggery into the kadai/vessel having roasted thinai flour.
