Ingredients:

Method:

Roast all grains separately till it leaves the raw aroma and grind it to a fine powder. Keep some powder aside to coat the balls later.

In a different pan, boil water, add jaggery and cook the syrup to a right consistency, (let couple of drops of the syrup in a bowl of water, if it rolls it into a ball it's perfect, if it solidifies then it's been over cooked).

Reduce the flame, add the roasted grain powder into the jaggery syrup. Mix well. 

Take it out of flame and mix in the freshly chopped coconut pieces and sprinkle the cardamon powder.

Mix all the ingredients well, and while hot roll it into small balls and coat it with leftover multigrain powder.

Note- You can also add roasted nuts like almonds, cashew- But this is purely optional
