Ladoo

• 2 cups gram flour (besan)
• 1 cup ghee (clarified butter)
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon cardamom powder
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (almonds, cashews)
• 2 tablespoons milk

Method

1. 1

   In a heavy-bottomed pan, heat the ghee over medium heat until melted.

2. 2

   Add the gram flour (besan) to the ghee and roast it, stirring continuously for about 5-7 minutes until it turns golden brown and aromatic.

3. 3

   Remove the pan from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.

4. 4

   Once the mixture is warm, add the powdered sugar, cardamom powder, and chopped nuts. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

5. 5

   If the mixture is too dry, add milk, a teaspoon at a time, until it reaches a consistency that allows you to form balls.

6. 6

   Grease your palms with ghee and take small portions of the mixture to roll into round balls (ladoo).

7. 7

   Place the ladoos on a plate and let them cool completely before serving.
