RECIPE OF Healthy ragi ladoo

Ingredient Name	Quantity	Unit
Ragi flour	1	Cup
Dalia (Split and Roasted Chana Dal/Pottukadalai)	1/2	Cup
Walnut	1/2	Cup
Jaggery Powder	1 and 3/4	Cup
Melted Ghee (Clarified Butter)	1/2	Cup
Cardamom (Elaichi powder) Optional	few	Pinch

DIRECTIONS

1.    Fry the ragi flour in a hot pan for about 7-8 minutes or until the raw smell is gone. Cool it for a couple of minutes.

2.    In a food processor / (Indian) mixer, powder the Dalia and walnuts separately.

3.    Once the ragi flour is cool enough blend it together with the powdered jaggery, ground Dalia and walnuts and the optional spices. If using a food processor pulse it a couple of times or if using a mixer give it small runs.

4.    Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add the melted ghee little by little just enough for you to be able to shape them into golf ball size balls.

5.    If the laddus crumble down while you are shaping them, it’s a clue that it needs more ghee. To make perfectly round laddu, take the mixture using your fingers and hold it tightly with your palm like making a fist. Once it is tight enough roll it lightly between both your palms to get a neat shape. Do not give too much pressure while rolling else it will crumble down.

6.    U can also try using badam and cashew instead of walnut.
