fruit
Raisin
Kishmish
3 g1 teaspoon
9 g1 tablespoon
0.5 g1 raisin
USDA average piece weight for seedless raisins
Instead of Raisin
Dried plumUse equal weight, pitted and finely chopped. Lends a deeper, slightly more tart sweetness to curries and rice dishes.
Cashew nutUse equal weight. Fry lightly in ghee until golden; substitutes the burst of sweetness with a rich, buttery crunch.
JaggeryUse 30% of the weight, finely grated. Dissolve straight into the sauce to match the intended sweetness, though without the fruity chew.
