Rinse the varai (barnyard millet) thoroughly under running water and drain.
In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee over medium heat.
Add the chopped nuts (cashews and almonds) and sauté until they turn golden brown. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add the rinsed varai and roast for 2-3 minutes until it emits a nutty aroma.
Add 2 cups of water to the pan and bring it to a boil.
Once the water starts boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer until the varai is cooked and the water is absorbed.
In a separate pan, melt the jaggery with a little water until it dissolves completely. Strain to remove any impurities.
Add the melted jaggery to the cooked varai and mix well.
Stir in the grated coconut and cardamom powder, mixing thoroughly.
Finally, add the sautéed nuts and mix everything together.
Serve the Varai Sweet Rice warm as a delightful dessert or snack.
