You can add very little sugar to the chunda, cook for 2 minutes till it dissolves. Switch off the flame and cool and use.

I''m trying to make the chunda using the traditional sun ripening method. But its been 4 days and it is still quite watery. Can I now cook it on a low flame to hasten the process?

How much jaggery for one kg rajapuri raw mango

Tarla Dalal
July 10, 2017, 8:28 a.m.
Hi, Rajapuri mango varies in size. Ideally in 1 kg approx there are 3 to 4 mangoes at times. So count the mangoes in 1 kg and double the recipe accordingly.

What to do if the sugar measurement is more in the chundo ?

Tarla Dalal
Sept. 8, 2014, 4:37 p.m.
If the amount of sugar added is more, the chunda might lose its texture and turn slightly hard. This cannot be rectified. Try and finish the chunda as early as possible because with time it will turn more hard.
