For the filling 
Add about three and a half cups of water to the roasted Green gram and cook till the gram gets tender. The Green gram should not get very soft and mashed up.
Melt jaggery. Once the jaggery starts boiling add the grated coconut and mix well.  Mix the cooked gram to this  and mix well. Whe these combine together add the sugar and the 1 tsp ghee.  As it gets thicker add the cardamom powder and mix well.  Shape in to balls when the mix is quite hot.

Mix rice flour and the maida together  and add the half tsp frozen ghee.  Combine ghee and the flours well together.dd enough water to get a thick batter.
The green gram balls should be dipped in this batter and then deep fried in oil to a golden colour.  While frying  pour ladleful hot oil over the frying sukhiyan balls, you will get crispy sukhiyans.
