Step By Step Instructions for Besan Ladoo Recipe | Besan Laddu
Take a heavy bottomed pan or kadhai and add besan to it.
4 Cup Besan (Gram Flour)
Add desi ghee and stir continuously while cooking on low heat.
1 Cup Desi Ghee
Roast the besan till the color of the besan has changed and it starts to release ghee.
When the besan is roasted switch off the heat and set it aside to cool. Do not leave the pan on the stove otherwise the besan will keep getting cooked further.
When the besan has cooled down slightly add the dry fruits and sugar. Do not add the sugar when the besan is too hot otherwise it will melt and make the mixture too loose to shape into balls. The besan should be just slightly hot so that the sugar mixes properly.
2 Cup Powdered Sugar, 1/2 Cup Almonds (Baadam), 1/2 Cup Cashew Nuts (Kaju), 1/2 Cup Raisins (Kishmish)
Shape the ladoos into small lemon sized balls. Besan Ladoos are ready.
