Akkara adisal or akkaravadisal is an authentic iyengar recipe, which is generally made during the month of Margazhi. Many people make this during aadi velli and thai velli too. I have made this akkaravadisal with sugar and have posted too. This typical iyengar dish i got the recipe, though i know how to make, bit not sure of the proportions. So asked my friend whose mom makes it very awesome and ended up with mouthwatering creamy akkara adisal. Over to the recipe of akkaravadisal using jaggery.

Note:
- Never add hot milk to the jaggery mixed rice. The milk may get curdled.
- Jaggery was just perfect for me, you can add little more if you find it less sweet.
- A pinch cardamom powder can also be added if you want.
- Saffron gives a very nice flavour to the akkaravadisal, so do not skip it.
- Never add milk to the jaggery water. It will curdle for sure.
