Learn how to make melt in the mouth besan ladoo recipe with step by step process.
Ingredients :
Besan / chickpea flour - 2 cup
Powdered Sugar/bhoora - 3/4 cup
Ghee / Clarified butter - 1/2 cup
Chopped cashew - 1 tsp
Chopped almonds - 1 tsp
Cardamom pod (seeds extracted and crushed ) - 2 to 3 no
Preparation Method :
1. Heat 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 6-7 minute on medium flame till it is light golden yellow).
2. Continue to roast besan on a low flame till the color has changed and the ghee starts to release from the besan, approx 14-15 minutes and the aroma of the roasted besan will be clearly felt, if the besan is not roasted well then you will get a raw taste in the ladoo.
3. After it cools, mix the crushed/ powdered cardamom seeds, powdered sugar(boora) and almonds nicely. Stir well so that no lumps are formed and mixture does not stick to the bottom of the pan and burns. Switch off the flame.
4. Once the besan ladoo mixture cools down or is warm enough for you to handle, then make small or medium sized besan ladoos from the mixture.
5. Serve besan ladoos immediately and after 3-4 hrs store them in air tight containers, if you want to store in freezer do so with freezer safe containers.

**Important Notes**
- If you are not able to make the ladoos, if the mixture is dry, add 1 or 2 tbsp of melted hot ghee in the mixture and mix well.
- If you are not able to make the ladoos of the mixture is too smooth and does not hold shape, then let the mixture cool and make the ladoos.
- If still not able to, then add refrigerate the mixture for 20-30 minutes, after refrigerating the mixture becomes firmer and then you can form the ladoos easily.
