[Indian Recipes] Besan Ladoo

One of my favorite sweets....Besan Ladoo!!As a kid I never had a sweet tooth but it developed immensely as I grew up.

I never liked the taste of store bought sweets,somehow for me it was never appealing.
So I started preparing sweets at home!! Check out my Jalebi, Chocolate Milk Cake, Rasmalai recipes too.



It's magical,how the taste of a dish can change immensely, just based on the quality of ingredients used and the way you make the dish.


Here is the Step by Step explanation of how to make these perfect ladoo for any occasion:
Firstly,in a small bowl take ghee and milk together and heat it lightly.

Now using your hands,take small portions of this mix and start rubbing on the flour.

Do not pour the entire mix of ghee at once on the flour then the flour will turn hard and ladoo will not be good.

Consume the entire ghee mix and make sure the flour is nicely coated with this mix.
If you try to form a ball of the flour then it should hold together.
Next,is sieve this flour,discard any residue.

In a pan,preferably non-stick,add flour and ghee and keep stirring it till the flour is brown in colour and it leaves aroma.
Let it cool,add the cardamom powder and powdered sugar.
Mix well and keep aside to cool.
When the mix is still slightly warm,start making ladoo.



I used to make all my sweets/dishes/savory snacks from store bought ghee/clarified butter till now. Recently after much thought to it, I started making ghee at home. Since we live in a world where its difficult to follow traditional process of saving the cream and finally after a month or so make the ghee.

I have started making ghee at home with store bought butter and even with that, the taste of these sweets/dishes have elevated with amazing fragrance and rich taste.






Besan ladoo was not my loved snack to be frank! But now I make this for almost every festival :) Time changes and so does people(ofcourse I mean for good ;) so did I and now I love this!
With various failed attempts to get that exact delicious taste, finally I could recreate the same taste.

Every bite of this ladoo is soooo delicious that they will vanish in no time and believe me, even if you don't have sweet tooth these are irresistible!!
