My Rava ladoos


My sister was having sweets festival at her work place. I really motivated me to make something which I always loved. Rava Ladoo is Andhra's famous delicacies. This is my first attempt. I like my ladoos little soft so I have added little extra milk .

Happy Diwali

Ingredients:

1 cup - rava / semolina
1 cup - sugar
4 table spoons - ghee
1 cup - grated fresh coconut
25 ml - milk
10 whole nuts - cashew nuts
10- Badam
10 - raisins
a pinch - cardamom powder

How to prepare

Heat 2 tsp of ghee in a pan.
Once the ghee is hot enough, simmer the flame and roast cashew nuts and raisins.
Once the raisins balloon up, remove. Then roast the grated coconut.
Remove once done. Keep all these aside.
Add the remaining ghee and roast the Rava till its well roasted and aroma starts coming out.
In a bowl, take all the roasted Rava, Nuts, Coconut and add the Cardamom powder. Then add the sugar. Mix well.
Then slowly add the warm milk into the bowl. Check if you are able to gather as balls.
When you find that milk added is enough to get you laddoos, transfer it back to the kadai and cook in sim for 2 mins.
Mix well and then cover it and let it rest for 2 mins.
Then immediately make balls or laddoos.
