To prepare the outer layer: First prepare the jaggery mixture, mix jaggery with 2 cups of water and boil until jaggery is dissolved completely, now allow it to come to room temperature.

To prepare the batter in a mixing bowl, add rice flour, maida, rava and mix well. Now add jaggery mix gradually and mix well to ensure no lumps are there. Cover it and keep it for 30 minutes to 1 hour to set. If required you can add little water to the batter after one hour. Make sure the batter shouldn't be too thick or too thin, consistency will be like dosa batter.

For inner filling preparation: In a kadhai add 1 tsp ghee, switch on the flame, now add desiccated coconut and stir on low flame. Now add sugar and mix well. Add 1/4 cup water and keep on low to medium flame. Stir Occasionally and now add chopped dry fruits (cashew and kismis), mix well. Switch off the flame once the water is completely absorbed and the mixture is dried. Keep aside for cooling down.

Now heat a flat nonstick pan or tawa. Using a brush apply oil or ghee. Now take a small amount of batter using a spoon. Spread on the pan like how we prepare dosa (but small size), once half cooked, add a little portion of coconut filling at one side towards the edge, now slowly and carefully roll it like a wrap. Shallow fry both the sides and take it out. Repeat the same process to prepare the remaining patisaptas.

Store it in a refrigerator for 2-3 days for consumption.
