Besan Ka Ladoo


I remember my mom making besan ka ladoo for every diwali and at some other festivals and occassions as well. I have seen her making these with a lot of love ever since I was a small kid and always love it for its simplicity - no complications in making, in its flavor or in anything about besan ke ladoo. So I decided to go for it this diwali. Here's my mom's recipe for Besan ke Ladoo.



Ingredients:

1 cup               Besan or Gram Flour

1/2 cup            Ghee, melted

3/4 cup            Powdered Sugar

1 tsp                Cardamom Powder

Method:

Heat a kadai or pan and fry besan till you get a good  aroma of roasted flour and it turns slightly brown in colour. Remove from heat.
Add ghee little by little and mix well.
Add powdered sugar, cardamom powder and mix. Add some more ghee if necessary.
The consistency should be such that you can shape into balls easily.
Apply some ghee in your palms, take a portion of the mixture and make into balls while the mixture is still hot .
Arrange in a plate and allow to cool.
Delicious Besan ka Ladoo is ready - and yeah don't forget to add lots ok love while you make them!!!
