2 method using jaggery syrup: Take Jaggery in a vessel. Add ½ cup of water and allow the jaggery to dissolve completely.
Once the jaggery is dissolved, Strain the jaggery juice in a heavy bottomed pan.
Bring the jaggery to boil and cook the jaggery till it becomes thick. We can check the consistency by dropping a small drop of jaggery syrup in a bowl of water. If the drop of jaggery doesn't dissolve in water, then the jaggery syrup has reached its right consistency.

Add the syrup little by little to the steamed puttu, mix. Finally add cardamom powder and ghee-roasted cashews, saffron and add it to the Aval puttu.

TIPS TO MAKE AVAL PUTTU
1. Do not add more water and make the poha powder like a thick dough. Just sprinkle water. When take a hand full of poha powder and hold together you should be able to make a ball but if you drop it should crumble. That is the right consistency.
2. If the jaggery syrup becomes too thick and becomes more of stone or hard consistency, do not panic, just sprinkle little water that will dilute the syrup again and we can cook till correct consistency - 10
