ABOUT Whole wheat sesame laddu RECIPE

This is a very nutritious recipe ideal for kids and youngsters for Winter season. Laddu's are not only stomach fillers but also provide strength and boosts our immunity as well provide the necessary fat required for the growth of our body. Best part is their shelf life. They taste good even when you keep them in airtight container for a month long. Gaundh is beneficial for people with a weak nervous system, anxiety and depression, piles and low vitamin D levels. Sesame seeds contain magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium, vitamin B1 and zinc, and are rich in dietary fiber and monounsaturated fats.

Instructions

The first step is to pour Ghee in a pan and roast the flour on medium flame and then roast the flour in low flame stirring in between we do it on low flame so that the flour doesnt stick to pan.
In a seperate pan fry gaundh and keep frying till they are fluffy. Prepare the reat items like roasting almond pieces, kishmish and Grating cocunut. Keep all the items together in a plate.
I have added sufficient amount of ghee if you want it to be less you can add as per your taste. But laddus require ghee for binding with sugar so we have to be a little generous when pouring ghee.
Roast Til/Sesame in the same pan, we used for roasting almonds and gaundh. You can also dry roast Til if you want.
I have added very little roasted Besan to give it a nice aroma..It is optional.
The roasted flour looks like this. When we feel that the flour has turned a little dark in colour as well as its giving the fragrance of Flour. You can add a spoon of Elaichi powder and the roasted items we kept in the seperate plate.Turn off the flame.
Final step is to mix powdered sugar when the flour is hot but not too hot else sugar will leave water. The last step is to bind the laddus together by giving them round ball shape by hand.
