Place some bilimbi evenly at the bottom of the jar. On top of it put a layer of jaggery. Now add another layer of the fruit and again a layer of jaggery. Continue the process till the jar is filled with jaggery and bilimbi fruits.

Now you can add two to three spoons of cinnamon and star anise powder. On top of it add 1 tsp of cardamom powder too. Optionally for more taste you can add sugar, ginger / dried ginger to this mix.

You can close the jar now. Tightly wrap the lid using a clean cotton cloth.
