Instructions
Dry roast almonds and cashews for 2-3 minutes or until they are slightly golden brown.
Take them out of the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add oats and roast them on a low flame for 2-3 minutes or until it turns slightly golden and emits nutty aroma.
Remove from the flame and let it cool completely.
Combine the roasted nuts, roasted oats and cardamom seeds in a mixie or blender jar.
Grind everything to a little bit coarse powder.
Add jaggery to the ground oats mixture and blend it again until smooth and well combined.
If you feel the sweetness is not enough, add more jaggery and blend it again at this stage.
Transfer the ground mixture to a mixing bowl.
Add chopped pistachios and mix well.
Add 2 tablespoons of warm/hot ghee over it and mix well.
Add one more tablespoon of ghee if needed. You should be able to roll the mixture into balls.
Grease a modak mould with ghee and stuff the mould with oats jaggery mixture.
Close the mould and remove any excess mixture.
Press and push gently at the bottom.
Gently unmold the modaks and repeat the same process with the remaining mixture.

You can also reduce ghee and use milk but the shelf life will be a day or two.
