traditional Indian digestive made primarily from cumin (jeera) seeds and other spices. Here’s a simple recipe to make Jeera Paachak Goli at home:


Ingredients:


1/2 cup cumin seeds (jeera)

2 tablespoons fennel seeds (saunf)

2 tablespoons coriander seeds (dhania)

1 tablespoon carom seeds (ajwain)

1 tablespoon dried mango powder (amchur)

1 tablespoon black salt (kala namak)

1 tablespoon regular salt

2 tablespoons jaggery (or adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon black pepper powder

1 teaspoon dried ginger powder (saunth)

1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)


Instructions:


1. Roasting the Spices:

Dry roast the cumin seeds, fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and carom seeds separately in a pan on low heat until they release a fragrant aroma. Be careful not to burn them.

Let them cool completely.

2. Grinding:

Once cooled, grind the roasted seeds to a fine powder using a spice grinder or blender.

3. Mixing Ingredients:

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground spice powder with dried mango powder, black salt, regular salt, black pepper powder, and dried ginger powder.

4. Adding Jaggery:

Add grated or finely chopped jaggery to the spice mixture. Mix well. The jaggery helps in binding the mixture.

5. Forming the Golis:

Knead the mixture well so that it becomes a dough-like consistency. If the mixture is too dry, you can add a little lemon juice to help bind it.

Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into small balls (golis). You can make them the size of a pea or slightly larger, depending on your preference.

6. Drying:

Spread the golis on a plate and let them air dry for a few hours to firm up. Alternatively, you can dry them in a preheated oven at the lowest setting for a few minutes.

7. Storage:

Once the golis are completely dry, store them in an airtight container. They can be kept for several weeks.


Usage:


Consume 1-2 golis after meals to aid digestion. They can also be enjoyed as a tangy, spicy treat whenever desired.
