I love these crunchy bites - they taste so ridiculously good. The cardamom and cinnamon are definitely present and warm the dish up and add so much depth and flavour.

Step-by-step
- Toast the nuts on a non-stick pan for 4 minutes or until they catch a light colour and are crisp. Leave them to cool.
- On a low flame melt the jaggery. Add the water if it’s stiff.
- Once the jaggery achieves a caramel type of consistency, add the cardamom and cinnamon and mix well.
- Turn the flame to a very low flicker and mix in the pecans and pull them out with tongs individually and lay them on baking paper to cool. Please do not use your fingers, hot jaggery burns.
