Mixed Nut Brittle with Jaggery

When it was Makar sankranti , everyone was making til ladoos and til brittle, I made it too but waited till everyone's containers empty so I can make them salivate more. I don't like til, peanuts or mamra ladoos or brittle. I just like mixed nuts one, but it always made with sugar and I didn't like that idea. So I try that with jaggery and I just loved it, I got this jaggery powder from Indian store, so I saved my time to grate jaggery. This taste remind me of eating only gud (jaggery) brittle, I used to get , after school snack, a big block of that brittle for only 10 paisa. Now a days I guess any kid has seen a 10 paisa in India. That time it was big deal for us , and that goes for a long time too. You can replace nuts with Sesame seeds, peanuts and puff rice too but this is my favorite one so here we go.

Thank you all for all the encouraging comments about my last post. Got so nice response from all of you and good wishes from all of you too. Thank you so much again for this and will be posting more and more recipes for this.
