Rava laddoo

yummy it was !!!!!!! :)

Friday i was yearning to eat some sweet and the day before i had seen this video for the recipe of rava laddoo on the youtube…So i just went into the kitchen n startd the preparation coz its very easy and all the ingres were available at home. Back in India this is a very common sweet in many houses.i dint used to have much love for it before, but when i made it myself, I simply finished all those in 2 days. :D .Well i shared it with my hubby and kid too.. ;)  Now herez a quick procedure for the laddoos.

ingredients:

butter- 4oz or half a stick

golden raisins/kismis-1/4 cup

rava/semolina-2cups

sugar – 2cups

dried shredded coconut- 1/4 cup

cardamom pwder- 1/2tsp

almonds/pista/cashew- 1/4cup

saffron (ground to powder)- a pinch

evaporated milk-5 oz

method:

Melt the butter n saute the raisins for a min or till they swell,remove the raisins and add rava to the butter in the pan.keep stirring till light colour change(dont turn it to brown).Now add sugar and coconut and mix well for a few mins.Add cardamom powder , dry fruits and crushd saffron and mix well for 2 mins.Now add evaporated milk and keep mixing for a min.Remove from the stove and mix well for a few more minutes.Make golf size balls and serve.Makes around 40 to 50 balls depending upon the size.

tips:

Make balls immediately wen hot and use cold water to caot ur hands before taking the hot mixture.this will protect ur hands from burning.

If u dont want to sweet u can adjust the sugar to 1 1/2 cup

Store in an airtight container and put in refridgerator.

Enjoy ur yummy work.
