BESAN LADOO (ROUND DESSERT BALLS MADE WITH GRAM FLOUR)
Hello friends,
--------------------------- Makes 10 Ladoos Approx Course: Dessert/Sweet Dish Cuisine: Indian Difficulty Level : Easy -----------------------------
Ingredients
200 gm or 2 cup Besan (Gram Flour) |
3-4 powdered Ilaichi (Cardamom) |
1 cup powdered sugar |
3/4th cup Desi Ghee (Clarified Butter) |

Method
- Add besan in a Kadhai and roast on low flame for 10 minutes. Add Desi ghee and keep on roasting, let the besan combine well with ghee. Use 1/2 cup ghee, if you want your ladoos to be more firmer.
2. After about 20-25 minutes the besan starts to release ghee. By now it should be little dark in color. Keep on roasting till it becomes golden brown. (proper roasting of besan is very important, if it is under roasted, it will have a raw smell to it and ladoos won’t taste good and over roasting will make the besan bitter)


3. Turn off the flame, after about 30-35 minutes of roasting. Let it cool down and transfer it to a large bowl.
4. When the besan is slightly warm, add powdered sugar and Ilaichi (cardamom) powder, mix well with hands. (Do not mix sugar in hot besan, as it will melt the sugar)


5. Prepare round ladoos and enjoy!
