Besan(chickpea flour) laddoo

Thursday, July 28, 2011

This is a traditional sweet, usually prepared during festivals in North India.

The original recipe from Tarla Dalal makes 10 laddoos, but since I made the kid-size laddoos, I got 12-13 from the same quantity. This is made in the microwave, and is also a quicker and lighter version of the traditional one.

Difficulty level: Easy
Preparation time: 5 min
Cooking time: 4 min + 30 min for cooling
Makes: 12 medium-sized laddoos

Ingredients:


Besan ( chickpea flour): 1 cup, sifted
Ghee: 1/3  cup
Cardamom powder: 1/4 tsp
Powdered sugar: 3/4 cup

In a microwave safe bowl, mix the ghee and the flour well. Microwave on high for 3 min, stirring every 30 sec. Remove the mixture and allow to cool completely.

Add the powdered sugar and cardamom powder and mix well. Shape into balls of your preferred size.
