Cooking Procedure:

Heat 1 tbsp ghee in a thick bottom pan and fry besan on medium flame with cashews, till besan loses its raw smell and emits a sweet aroma.(approx 7-10 min on medium flame till it is light golden yellow).Shift it to a plate n let it cool.

Sugar Crystallization Process :
In the same pan add sugar along with 1/4 cup of water and stir on medium flame. The sugar will pass through 4 stages (Sugar > Syrup > Thick Syrup > Sugar ) We should be constantly stirring to avoid lumps. In the end it will again be crystal sugar.... if u have some lumps remove them and grind them. Remove to plate and let it cool.

After it cools mix the fried besan,sugar,crushed cardamom seeds,almonds nicely.

Divide the mixture into 3 portions and add and the required amount of ghee to one portion and shape it into 2-3 laddus.

Note: Adding ghee to portion by portion will prevent us from adding excess ghee which will make the laddus too sticky. You will get rough estimate how much ghee to add by this method.

After 3-4 hrs store them in air tight containers, if you want to store in freezer do so with freezer safe containers.

This besan ke laddu goes to some wonderful events
