- 2 cup Ladoo Besan
- ½ cup Ghee 3 tbsp more to be used later
- ½ cup chopped Cashew Nuts and Almonds
- 1 Tsp Cardamom Powder (Elaichi Powder)
- 1 cup Powdered Demerara Sugar or Bura
Heat a Pan and add the Besan. Dry roast the Besan over medium flame for 2-3 minutes.
Now, add the ½ cup of Ghee and mix well. Stir constantly for about 20 minutes. Keep roasting the Besan for 20 minutes. The Besan is going to get fragrant.After 20 minutes, add 2 tbsp more of Ghee. Mix well with the Besan. Watch how the texture of the Besan changes. It'll start to get thinner. You can add more Ghee if your Besan is still forming clumps. Now, add the finely chopped Cashew Nuts and Almonds. Remember to chop the Cashew Nuts and Almonds very finely so that it mixes with the Besan easily.
Once the Besan is all smooth and liquidy, take it out on a plate. Smoothen out the top with the back of a spatula and allow it to cool down to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Add the Sugar and Cardamom Powder. Mix well with the Besan and make Ladoos.
Once the Ladoos are prepared, top them with chopped pistachios and serve.
- Use Ladoo Besan for the better texture of the Ladoos. Do not use regular Besan. If you have no other option, then grind some Chickpeas in a food processor until it gets coarse and mix with the Besan.
- Remember to Roast the Besan and then use it. Roasting the Besan will make it more flavorful. Also, if your Besan is too old, roasting it and then using it will get rid of the stale smell.
- Be very patient while roasting the besan with Ghee. This will take time. All you need is some Patience to get the right consistency of the Besan.
- If your Besan needs more ghee while making the Ladoos, then apply some Ghee on your Palms and then make the Ladoos.
