Nachni Ladoo Recipe

 Nachni Ladoo

Ingredients:

1 cup nachni (ragi or finger millet) flour

1/2 cup grated jaggery

1/4 cup ghee or clarified butter

1/4 cup roasted nuts (cashews, almonds, pistachios), chopped

1/4 tsp cardamom powder

Instructions:

Heat a heavy-bottomed pan on medium heat and dry roast the nachni flour for 4-5 minutes or until it turns light brown in color. Stir continuously to avoid burning.

Transfer the roasted flour to a plate and let it cool down to room temperature.

In the same pan, heat the ghee on low heat until it melts completely.

Add the grated jaggery to the pan and mix well until the jaggery melts and combines with the ghee.

Add the roasted nachni flour, chopped nuts, and cardamom powder to the pan and mix well until everything is combined.

Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool down for a few minutes.

Grease your palms with some ghee and shape the mixture into small round balls or ladoos.

Repeat the process until all the mixture is used up.

Let the ladoos cool down completely and store them in an airtight container.

Your delicious and nutritious nachni ladoos are ready to be enjoyed!
