Instructions: We begin making the Karnataka Style Ellu Bella Recipe (Sankranti Mix Recipe) by following the procedure below:Roasting the peanutsHeat a big kadai, when it is hot and before it starts to smoke add in the peanuts with skin and roast them till it become slightly brown.Once done, let it cool down, by using a Muslin cloth or Gunny bag, add in the roasted peanuts in the center and wrap them up, hold it tightly by using one hand and with the other hand rub the peanuts against the cloth. This will help in removing the skin from the peanuts. Blow away the husk and keep the peanuts aside.For the copraRemove the outer brown layer from the copra, cut them into small pieces and dry roast them on the kadai and keep it aside.For the JaggeryYou can use a knife to cut the jaggery into small pieces and keep it aside.
