Urad Dal Ladoo
Delicious Proteim-Rich Laddoos made from black gram, ghee, nuts and cardamom.
Equipment
- Pan
- Spatula
- Mixer grinder
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Urad Dal (without skin)
- ¾ Cup Ghee
- 2 Cups Jaggery Powder
- 10 Cardamom Pods
- 10-12 Cashews
- 15-20 Almonds
- 10-12 Pistachios
Instructions
- Dry roast the lentils on medium heat for 10-12 minutes until they brown slightly and release a nice aroma. Once done, remove them. While they are still hot, grind them into a fine powder.
- Take out the seeds from the cardamom pods and grind them into a powder along with the nuts.
- Mix the hot lentil powder with the nuts and cardamom powder. Then add the Jaggery and ghee and combine well.
- Before the mixture cools down completely, start binding it into small balls. I made lemon-sized balls.
- These laddoos can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for about 10-15 days, away from sunlight.
