Ingredients

  • 2 cup wheat flour
  • 1 ¼ cup Granulated sugar I used Imperial sugar Powdered
  • ¼ cup sooji/rava/semolina
  • 1 cup+ 2 tablespoon ghee
  • 1 cup water
  • ¼ cup broken salted cashews
  • ½ teaspoon cardamom powder

Instructions

  • In a big bowl add wheat flour, rava and 2 tablespoon full of ghee and mix well.
  • Add water and knead to form a stiff dough
  • Keep aside for half an hour and then make 8 balls from the dough.
  • Press the ball in between your palm and fingers to give a fist shape.
  • In a frying pan, heat ghee
  • Once ghee starts boiling add fist shaped dough and fry on a slow flame till it reaches the golden brown color.
  • Once it is cool enough to touch, break the fried dough into small pieces,
  • and grind them into powder ( churma) which is coarse like bread crumbs, using a food processor or grinder.
  • Sift through the sieve so that coarse powder is separated from the fine powder.
  • Repeat this sieving and grinding until you get all fine powder.
  • In a big frying pan add the powder (churma) and roast it slightly for 5 min on simmering heat
  • This will give a nice roasted smell to the powder and it will increase the shelf life of churma also.
  • Add sugar, cardamom and cashew nuts to the powder and mix well adding little ghee( I used the ghee which I used for frying.
  • Mix well and shape them into round ball, if you need ghee add more to bind the ladoo you need only 3 tablespoon maximum.
  • Once you shaped the ladoo store it in an air tight container.
