DirectionsHeat the ghee over a medium heat, adding both flours when warmed. Just before the flour is raosted, add coconut and dried fruits/almonds. Add the sugar and stir thoroughly. Remove from the heat and, once cooled, roll into laddus -- small balls approximately one-inch in diameter.Author Comments*Ghee is clarified butter, which is slowly cooked for about two hours to settle any impurities to the bottom. The "pure" layer on top is delicious -- and fattening. Although far inferior, butter or vegetable oil may be used to substitute for ghee in any of these recipes. |
