Aarti - Let me attempt to translate RR's recipe:
Rice - 1/4 kg
Vellam - 200g
Cardomom - 3
Wash rice and soak for 15 minutes.
Remove water and grind in mixie.
Next sieve the flour (but how RR, when the flour is wet?).
Dilute jaggery in water and make a syrup. Syrup should not be thick.
In a plate, put the rice flour, add the syrup a little at a time and make a dough.
Fry it in hot oil, the next day, so that it is soft.

Thanks NOV, for the translation. A small clarification,
The step 'Remove water' is actually: filter out water and let it dry by spreading it on a towel (or paper) in a no-sunlight place. When it is more-or-less dry, grind it in mixie. Now, there will be no moisture and you can sieve the flour.

As the Big Day approaches, let me share a recipe that is different from the traditional.
Crunchy Peanut Filled Cookies
Ingredients
Wheat Flour - 1kg
Margarine & Ghee - As required
Peanuts - 1/4 kg
Sugar - 4 tbsp
Sugar for coating
Method
Roast the peanuts and grind coarsely.
When it is cool, add sugar and mix thouroughly. Keep aside.
Heat the margarine and ghee till it melts. Mix with the flour and get a dough that is pliable.
Make small ba-lls of the dough. Make a cavity and put a small portion of the peanut/sugar mixture and shape it.
Bake in a hot oven.
Grind the sugar for coating finely in a grinder. Coat the cookie with this sugar, when it is still warm.
Tips
The consistency of the dough is very important. The dough may break when baked if it is not correct.
Do not use icing sugar for coating as it tends to melt. It's best to grind your own.

Easy method to make ravaladu from seetha
Roast the ravai. 1 kg ravai sugar may be 3/4 kg.
Roast cashunut, some grambu, roasted and powdered
cardamam, roasted raisin.
Put a kadai in the flame and add 3/4 kg. sugar and pore water until the sugar covered with water.
approximately one glass.when the syrub comes one
thread consistensy [this is important] remove from fire and add ravai and other items and stir well. We can make ball size ladus from this mixer. If it is cool no fear about it we can do it taking our own time.
