4. Turn off the stove and allow jaggery to dissolve completely. Add salt and mix well.
5. Add flour slowly to the ghee and jaggery mix while continously stirring till a soft dough is made.

Note that cookies solidify upon cooling. So dont hesitate to take them out of the oven even if they are soft and chewy.
