Instructions
 

  • Wash dal and spread it in some tray so that it dries completely.
  • When dal turns completely dry, add it to a heavy bottomed pan and dry roast until aromatic. It will take 10-12 minutes.
  • When dal cooled down completely, grind it to a fine powder.
  • You may sieve the powdered dal for fine texture. This step is optional but we did it.
  • Take sugar and seeds of cardamoms in a grinder.

  • You may sieve the sugar too for fine texture. Again this step is optional but we did it.
  • Take the powdered dal and powdered sugar in a bowl. Mix.

  • Mix and start binding the mixture into ladoo shaped balls. If mixture is not binding into ladoo, you may add bit of more desi ghee.
  • Enjoy.

Notes
