Rawa Laddu / Semolina Laddu




Ingredients:

Rawa / Semolina - 1 cup
Sugar – ¾ cup
Ghee – 50 ml
Cardamom Powder – ½ tsp
Cashews / Raisins – few (optional-to garnish)





Cooking Instructions:

Dry Roast the rawa in a pan for few minutes until it tunrs little brown in color and good aroma starts to come. Keep it aside.

Fry cashews and raisins in 1 tbsp of ghee and keep aside.


Heat the remaining ghee in a pan until it melts well. Put roasted rawa, measured sugar in a wide mouth pan and mix well. Now add melted ghee to it and mix well gently. Add a little of hot water to it to gather the rawa mixture as laddus/ balls. Do not add more water. When you are able to roll it into laddus, stop adding water. Now gather the rawa mixture and roll into round shape balls and garnish it with cashews and raisins. Rawa laddus are ready.



You can add even milk (at room temperature) instead of hot water but it reduces shelf life of laddus. If you add hot water, we can store in air tight containers for more days.








When u rollout the laddus into balls, it will be soft and break when u press hardly. But no need to worry because it takes some time to harden itself. Leave it undisturbed for an hour. The laddu will become little hard in that time interval and now you can store rawa laddus in an air tight container.

Event for the Month of September and the Theme is Chicken

I thank all my blogger friends first of all, who wished for my son Amiitesh's birthday and he enjoyed a lot on that day with all my relatives and particularly during the function time. Amiitesh got up by 5.15am itself on that day and went to bed only by 11pm and he don't want to miss to play with his grand parents and uncles. He was very eager to cut the cake from the time we received it from the bakery. He looked so smart on that day and we had a blast of happiness. He was more eager to see the gift packs he received for his birthday and started playing with them immediately as soon as we unpack the gifts. And thank you all again who showered my son with their blessings. Feeling very happy again today in Announcing the event for the month of September and the theme is "Chicken" , which is all time favorite for everyone of us.
