This recipe is especially to answer the concern of many parents who refrain from offering packaged foods to their children. Sweets & candies are an all-time favourite for the little ones. No birthday party is complete without them. But then we wouldn’t really want our children to be consuming all the sugar, colours & other additives these candies are loaded with. Here is a simple recipe to make a lollipop in your own kitchen. Try it out to delight your kids!

  • Tamarind: 1 cup
  • Jaggery powder: ½ cup
  • Cumin seeds: 2 tsp
  • Rock salt: ½ tsp
  • Garlic: Few cloves (optional)
  • Chilli powder: ½ tsp (optional)

Method

  • Adjust the sweetness and salt as per your liking.
  • Mould the paste into round shapes and stick it onto a wooden stick to mimic lollipop. Job is done!
  • Watch your kids enjoy this traditional, healthy lollipop.

    Eating Guide:
