Ingredients
  

  • 15 eggs room temperature
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 500 grams kithul jaggery
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 6 cardamom
  • 3 cloves
  • 1 Ceylon Cinnamon Stick
  • ½ cup milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400F. In a large blender, blend together the eggs with the salt, until foamy and doubled in size.
  • In a medium sized pot over low heat, add the jaggery, water, cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon. Slowly melt, taking care not to burn the mixture. Once melted, stir in the milk.
  • Add the jaggery mixture to the eggs and blend until smooth. The mixture will be thin and frothy. Strain it into an 8x8 container and loosely cover with aluminum foil.
  • Take a large tray and place in the oven, add the covered pudding, and fill up the large tray with water until it's about 1 inch high.
  • Bake for around 1hr and 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Enjoy warm or refrigerate and serve cold the next day with chopped cashews!
