Ingredients
  • 1 cup ground chestnut flour (Singoda flour).
  • ¼th tsp - fresh ground cardamom
  • ¾ cup - brown sugar or grated jaggery. If using jaggery, use ½ cup only
  • ¼ cup or less - fresh ghee. Using homemade ghee gives laddu's a mouth-watering aroma
  • Few cashews to garnish
Instructions
  1. Roast chestnut flour on medium-low heat until raw smell is gone. Stir occasionally.
  2. Remove into a mixing bowl. Let it cool.
  3. Add brown sugar, cardamom. Slowly add room temperature ghee to the roasted mixture. Keep mixing as you add. This ensures just enough ghee needed. Adding more ghee makes mixture slimy. Try forming balls as you add ghee. When you think you can make balls, don't add any more ghee.
  4. Add cashews to this mixture. Make balls by pressing in your hand and fingers.
