Besan ladoos with dry fruits

Ladoos made out of gram flour. Very tasty and easy to make.

Ingredients:

4 cup gram flour(besan)

1/4 cup semolina (sooji)

1 cup ghee

2 cups powdered sugar(bhura)

1 teaspoon cardamon powder

1/2 cup crushed dry fruits(cashew nuts, walnuts, raisins, pista, almonds)

Method:

Heat ghee in kadahi,  put sooji and roast till it turns golden brown in colour. To this add besan and roast it too on low flame . This will take approximately 10 to 15 minutes .  The besan is properly roasted when the colour of it changes into golden and a nice aroma starts coming. Add cardamon powder, stir well. Let the besan mixture cool at room temperature.

When the besan mixture is little warm, add bhura & dry fruits and mix well. Take a small amount of this mixture and  make ladoos of  desired size.Garnish with sliced almond pieces.

Besan ladoos are ready.

Optional notes:


I had added sooji to give a crunchy taste and texture to ladoos. My mother in law adds 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder diluted with water into this mixture to enrich its color. Be a little alert during the roasting time of besan or it might burn as it gets roasted quickly.
