Heat water and add the rava to it. Cook on low flame till soft and add sugar/jaggery and cardamom powder. Mix well and when it gets thick, cool it. Make balls of it.

Make a soft dough of all purpose flour, pinch of salt and water. Add oil to it and mix well to make it elastic. Keep covered for 1 hour. Make balls of it.

Roll out the dough into small puri, place a ball of filling in the center and cover it well from all sides. Dust with flour and roll out again into thick polis ensuring that the filling does not come out. Cook it on a tava on low flame till brown spots appear on both sides using little ghee.
