Besan laddu

Ingredients...

[1] 4 cups coarse gram flour (also known as besan for laddus which is coarse and easily available in Indian groceries)

[2] 3 1/4 cups ground sugar.

[3] 1 3/4 cups ghee.

[4] 1/4 cup warm milk.

[5] cardamom powder.

[6] raisins, almonds, pistachios

Method...

1. Roast gram flour in a ghee over medium heat until aroma comes and it turns light red.

Microwave Method: Mix together gram flour and ghee in a microwave proof pan. Put it in the microwave. Keep mixing in the intervals of 1 minute to avoid burning. When the mixture turns reddish (approx. 10minutes), remove. Microwave method is faster than the regular one.

2. Then remove and sprinkle the milk over the roasted flour. Stir.

3. When this mixture gets warm, mix in sugar. Let rest until it cools. Then knead it properly with the hands. Add cardamom powder and nuts.

4. Take some mixture on your palm and make balls of desired size.

Store laddus in an airtight container.
