Enjoy!!!!Can be stored for  to 4 days or freezed for months.
You may liquify the jaggery and strain it,if you feel the need.
To adjust the consistency you may add water or rice flour to loosen or thicken the batter.
Tastes best when fried in coconut oil.
I used black jaggery as I like the taste.You may use yellow jaggery or sugar.
