Ingredients needed for making Laddoo’s

• Coarse wheat flour : Traditionally coarse wheat flour is used.But it is always not available.So regular roti wheat flour can be used.And to give the coarse texture semolina or rava is used.
• Ghee: It can be used as ‘moyen’ while making the dough.It acts as a binding agent to the ladoo.Also,it adds a rich flavor.
• Oil : Use any flavorless oil for frying.Traditionally ghee is used for frying.
• Warm water: Make sure to use lukewarm water (not room temperature or cold water).
• Nutmeg & Cardamom: Both add a nice flavor and aroma to the laddoos.
• Jaggery: Any kind of jaggery works (desi gur,powdered jaggery or kolhapuri jaggery).Use whatever is available.
• Drydruits : I have used almonds & cashews.
• Khaskhas (poppy seeds) : I have added it to give a crunchy bite while eating.But you can lightly roll the laddoos into the khaskhas as a garnishing.
