Ingredients

 

•	Gram flour (besan)	2 cups
•	Sugar	2 cups
•	Baking powder	1/2 teaspoon
•	Cashewnuts	10
•	Raisins	20
•	Green cardamoms	15
•	Saffron (kesar)	4 strands
•	Milk	a few drops
•	Ghee	1/2 kilogram

Method

Shell and powder cardamoms.

 

Add one fourth cup of water to sugar, heat until sugar melts. To check if the sugar syrup is ready, take a drop of the solution and drop it in water - if it remains intact and does not dissolve right away in water, the sugar syrup is ready.

 

Add saffron and cardamom powder to it. (While preparing the sugar syrup, add a few drops of milk. Impurities will collect on the surface in a layer - remove it.)

 

Add soda and water to gram flour and make a paste without lumps.

 

Heat half a kilogram of ghee in a deep frying pan. Put gram flour in boondi maker and drop the boondi directly into the hot ghee. Fry till light yellow. Drain and keep aside.

 

 Fry cashew nuts and raisins. Add boondi, cashew nuts and raisins to the sugar syrup and mix. Cool.

 

 

Rub some ghee on your palms. Make laddoos by squeezing the boondi mixture in your palms and making round balls.
