Heat 1 cup water and then add jaggery in it and cook till it just melts.
Now strain the water and let the water cool downs completely.
Add wheat flour in the jaggery water , add wheat flour in small batches and keep mixing, else it can form lumps.
You may need few more tbsp of water to make the batter soft and smooth.
Batter should be of pouring consistency like we make pakora batter. It should be soft and smooth.
You may need few tbsp of water or wheat flour to adjust the consistency as each wheat flour absorb different amount of water.
