Hesarubele Undey - Moong dal laddoo

 At last…. I posted!

Six long months of hesitation to write, coping with slow broadbands, remembering photography, making time for a decent cooking other than routine fast food stuff,…. world was never same for me after moving back to India.

Though i could not post or pass a word of comment to all my blog friends, i often used to make sure that i am still remembered!!(oh yeah i am selfish) I was scared, frightened, where all of you, one day, one by one just knock me off from your blog rolls.

Hoping to continue posting… i have come up with a sweet dish for this new year as a first dish after a long break, first ever sweet dish of my blog.

To start with my where abouts, we are residing in JP nagar, 10th floor of an apartment building. I am off with those  cosy little houses we lived in Gulf, still it was a great life which i always miss.

My aunt who had visited us to celebrate New Year, made these lovely delicious Laddoos made of Moong daal.  I have no clue how much caloried ingridients goes into this. It was a cool stuff anyway.

What goes in while making laddoos,

Yellow gram dal (Moong dal)  2 cup

Sugar   1 and 1/4  cup

Ghee       1/4 cup

Kaju and kishmish(nuts and raisins)   1 cup

Cardamom (Ilaichi)   4 cloves (powdered)

Milk    2 tbsp

How to make:

Roast moong dal in a thick bottmed vessel or a frying pan till golden.  Fine powder it in the mixer.  Powder the sugar too.  Keep aside.  Heat ghee in a Kadai, dry roast moong dal powder in ghee till the powder leaves aroma.  Mix this powder with sugar and Nuts and raisins roasted in a tbsp of ghee.

Make Lemon sized balls, keeping your hand wet with milk.  Prepare balls when the mixture remains hot and warm.  Relish the laddoos, after it gets cooled.
