Ingredients of Besan Ke Ladoo (Laddu)
- 2 Cups gram flour
- 1/2 cup ghee
- 3/4 cup sugar, powdered
- 1/4 tsp green cardamom, powdered
- for garnishing almonds, blanched
- for garnishing pistachios, blanched
How to Make Besan Ke Ladoo (Laddu)
- In a kadahi (wok), melt the ghee and add the gram flour. Stir-fry over low heat. It takes about 30 minutes for the flour to get cooked through and it gets a pasty look when done.
- The color should be a light brown. Shut off the heat and leave the mixture to cool completely. If it does not cool entirely, it becomes moist when sugar is added.
- Add the sugar and cardamom and mix well by rubbing it with your open palm against the base of the bowl. Rub till blended thoroughly.
- Shape into tight, hard balls, pressing hard at every stage. At the final stage, keep it pressed a little longer, so that the surface becomes smooth.
- Decorate the top of each ball with almonds and pistachios. Serve.
- These ladoos can be stored for almost 4-6 weeks in an air tight jar.
