RAVA LADDU





This is a popular Indian sweet.... So simple to prepare.


Ingredients:


1 Cup sooji/upma rava/semolina
1 Cup sugar (increase according to your choice)
1 tbs Cardamom powder
15 Cashew nuts
15 Raisins
3 tbs Ghee
few tbs milk




Preparation:


1.Heat a pan, add one tbsp. of ghee and roast the cashew nuts and raisins.
   Remove from pan, keep it aside.
2.In the same pan, add the sooji and roast it, till it turns into
   light brown colour. Remove from pan and keep it aside.
3.Take a big bowl, add sugar, cardamom powder, roasted sooji and remaining 
   ghee and combine well. Sprinkle few tbs. of milk and mix well till it forms a 
   crumbly mixture. Using both your hands, form a small ladoos and garnish 
   with roasted cashew nuts and raisins. 
4.While shaping the laddos be careful such that the mixture stays together.
   Initially the laddu might tend to break hence be gentle and place the laddu
 
carefully on a plate and it will harden in a few minutes.
