Boondi ladoo / Besan ladoo
Besan ladoo / Boondi ladoo
Ingredients:
Besan flour / gram flour 1.2 cup
Baking soda / powder 1/4 tsp
Oil for deep frying
Sugar 1.5 cup
Cloves 5-6
Cardomom 5-6
Rose essence 1/4 tsp ( optional)
Raisins / dry grapes 15-20pcs
Directions:
Take a full cup of besan flour / gram flourAdd some cooking soda / baking powder
Mix well. Add water and stir
Add more water and mix well
The batter should not be very thick
Now the batter is watery so I'm adding 2 spoonful flour
Now the batter consistency is perfect
Meanwhile heat up oil in a flat kadai for deep frying. Once is hot enough just pour one drop of batter in hot oil.
If it's suddenly raises then it's good. You can continue pouring the batter using holed spatula
Pour the batter on top of holed spatula and move it slowly
Leave it only for 2-3 seconds in hot oil, just stir 2 seconds and remove all the Boondi else the Boondi will become crispy.
Take out all the Boondi and transfer it to the wide mouth large bowl.
Same way pour the batter using spatula, stir and remove the boondi
This strainer will take out all the Boondi in one shot.
Boondi is ready.
The Boondi should be soft..just remove the crispy boondis it will spoil the taste
Meanwhile make a sugar syrup. For 1 cup bean 1.2 cup sugar. Now here I have added one cup besan and 1/4 cup to adjust batter consistency so I'm adding 1.5 cup sugar for syrup
Add 1/4 cup of water
Heat up the sugar pot
On the other hand, grind some cardomom and cloves
Coarsely ground spices
Heat up ghee on the other side
Add raisins and fry for 20-30 seconds
Add the ground spices
Transfer it to the Boondi bowl
Remove the fried elaichi skins
Mix well everything together
Adding half a tea spoon of rose syrup for flavour
When the syrup thickens check the consistency by adding a drop of syrup to the water.π
If the sugar syrup in the water turns like jelly then it's time to swtich off the flame.
Add the syrup to Boondi bowl
Mix well nicely
Allow it to reach room temperature
The Boondi absorbs sugar,now it's time to make Boondi ladoo
Keep a bowl of water aside..
Take a small portion and squeeze nicely so that excess sugar syrup will release and the ladoo will be in shape
After squeezing just make it a round shape.π
Boondi ladoo is ready π
Note:
1.For 1.2 cup of besan flour I got 21 ladoos.
2.And most importantly please add turmeric powder along with baking powder.
3.You need to wash your hands before making each ladoos, else your ladoos looks sticky.
