Dry Fruit Ladoos

These quick ladoo's are really good during merciless winters. The kids love those too. They are really easy to make and you can easily substitute the ingredients with the ones that are available.



Ingredients:
1 Cup Jaggery - grated or coarsely chopped
1/4 Cup - powder of edible gum
1/2 Cup - Coconut powder
1/2 Cup - Almod powder
1/4 Cup - Walnut powder
1 Tbsp Ginger powder
1 Tbsp - Poppy seeds powder
1/2 Cup - Ghee (melted butter)

Method:
1. Heat 3 Tbsp ghee and add gum powder to it. Let it all puff up and make sure it does not burn. Remove from flame and set aside.
2. Heat 2 Tbsp ghee and melt the jaggery keeping medium flame.
3. Turn of the flame when all the jaggery melts.
4. Add the puffed gum and rest of the ingredients to it.
5. Quickly roll the ladoos. If the mixture is dry, add some ghee to be able to make the ladoos.
6. They are ready to be served. Keep in an air-tight container.

Notes:

  • I had all the powders ready, so the preparation time was very less. 
  • You can adjust the amount of jaggery and ghee as per your taste. If you find it too sweet, take less jaggery, you might have to add more ghee for binding.
  • You can modify the recipe to add cashews, sesame seeds, flaxseed powder as per your liking.
