Rava Laddu (Semolina Laddu)


Ingredients:
Godhuma Rava (Sooji/Semolina) - 1 cup
Shredded coconut - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 cup
Cashews - 12
Raisins - 12
Powdered Cardamom - 1/2 tbsp
Ghee - 1 tbsp
Milk - required to make laddus

Procedure:
  1. Finely grind the sugar to powder and set aside.
  2. Take a small pan, heat ghee and roast cashews & raisins one by one until they turn to golden brown.
  3. Take a pan, add rava and roast under low flame until the flavor of the semolina is obtained (it may take 7-8 min). Remove rava from pan and transfer in to another bowl.
  4. Similarly roast shredded coconut until it turns a bit crisp.
  5. Now add roasted rava and powdered sugar in to fried coconut and mix well until the sugar starts melting.
  6. Add powdered cardamom, cashews, raisins and stir well.
  7. Switch off the flame, let it be cooled. 
  8. Now add milk little by little in to mixture to make laddu of required size. Sprinkle just 1-2 tbsp of milk at a time, and make laddu. Do not wet the entire mixture at a time.

TIP: Be sure that you add milk little by little (sufficient to make 2-3 laddus). If the entire mixture is made wet at the same time, it will turn runny and it is not possible to make a laddu.
