Wheat Flour Ladoos Ingredients: Method: Black Gram Ladoos Ingredients: Black gram – 2 cups Method:
Wheat flour - 1 cup
Powdered sugar - 3/4 cup
Cardamom -1/2 tsp
Cloves -2
Ghee -1/2 cup (approx)
Raisins /kismis 1 tsp
Heat a tsp of ghee and fry cloves. Add wheat flour and fry on a very low flame for around 10minutes (till you get the aroma). Now add sugar and fry for 5min. Add cardamom and raisins. Now add the remaining ghee, slightly cool. Shape into Ladoos.
Rice - 4 - 5 tbsp
Jaggery/brown sugar – ½ cup grated
Ghee - 5 - 6 tsp
Sweet Indian Stuffed bread
2 cups chana dal, soaked in water for 4 hours
2 cups jaggery or brown sugar
2 cups refined flour
3 tbsps oil
1 tsp cardamom powder
a generous pinch of saffron
3/4 tsp turmeric powder
Drain and cook chana dal in a pressure cooker till soft. Drain out excess water till the dal is absolutely dry. Add jaggery and cook further till blended and mash into a soft paste. Add cardamom powder, saffron,and mix well. Form 20 balls of equal size and reserve.
Mix refined flour, oil, water and turmeric powder. Make a very soft, sticky dough. Knead very well. Use oil to knead. Divide into 20 equal portions. With greased palms, take one portion of dough and flatten it into a disc of the size of the palm. Place a ball of "chana jaggery" paste in the centre and fold the disc from all sides to cover the paste completely. On a well-floured board, preferably over a sheet of clean transparent plastic wrap, gently roll out each poli to a 6 inches disc. This can get very tricky as the paste does try to slide out.
Use a little flour if that happens. Roll.Roast each poli on a hot, dry girdle with no oil or ghee. Roast both sides till well done and aromatic. Smear with ghee on both sides when done. Serve warm with clarified butter or a bowl of milk.
