Ingredients
- 250 gBesan
- 100 mlGhee
- 150 gPowdered Sugar
- ½ tspCardamom, crushed
To garnish
- 10 gPistachios, sliced
Method
Heat the ghee on low heat in a heavy pan. Add the besan.
Roast, stirring continuously, for 18-20 minutes. The besan will go from pasty to loose and sandy, turn golden and smell nutty. Do not stop stirring or it will catch.
Remove from the heat and let it cool for about 10 minutes, until warm but still workable.
Mix in the powdered sugar and cardamom.
Shape into 12 balls while the mixture is still warm, pressing a pistachio sliver on top of each. Let the ladoos set for an hour.
Tips
If the mixture will not hold together, add a tablespoon of warm ghee. If it is too sticky, rest it 5 minutes.
