Besan Ke Ladoo Recipe: How It Make It At Your Home

Roasting Besan

• First of all, roast the besan in a heavy kadhai or pan without adding any oil, butter or ghee.
• You need to roast the besan on low-medium flame for about 10 to 12 minutes.
• You need to stir the besan continuously right from the beginning. Else the besan will burn and won't be cooked uniformly.

Adding Ghee And Other Ingredients

• After you are done roasting the besan, add ghee into the same kadhai.
• Mix well and continue roasting the besan for 12 to 15 minutes. Make sure you keep stirring the besan.
• Soon, you'll see that the mixture starts releasing ghee from its side. Also, the mixture will release a sweet and nutty aroma during this process.
• Keep stirring the mixture unless it starts losing the sides of the pan and forms a coarse dough shape.
• Now remove the pan from the stove and add powdered sugar into it.
• Mix the powdered sugar well. This will require energy and patience. You need to mix the sugar vigorously to ensure that the ladoos have a uniform taste.
• While you mix powdered sugar into the ghee besan mixture, make sure the mixture doesn't have lumps.
• Now add powdered cardamom, raisins and chopped cashews. Mix well.
• Let the mixture be lukewarm or cool down at room temperature.
• Once the mixture cools down, take a small quantity of the mixture and form small ladoos with the help of your palms.
• After you have given a round shape to the ladoos, keep them aside to set.
• You can also refrigerate them for 15-20 minutes
• Serve besan ladoo garnished with some dry fruits.
