Multi Grain Laddu is a highly nutritious Laddu, the recipe of which was passed on to me by my beloved sister in law Ms. Chitra Velmurugan, a Smiling Beauty and an ardent devotee of Lord Muruga.
Ingredients :
Sooji / Rava 1 cup
Moong Dhal / Pasiparuppu 1 cup
Roasted Channa Dhal / Pottukadalai 1 cup
Wheat Flour 1 cup
Roasted Ground Nut, Badam, Cashew( together) 1 cup
sugar 4 cups
Ghee 1.25 - 1.5 cup
Cardamom 4
Method :
1. Dry roast Rava, Moong dhal and wheat flour separately, one by one till an aroma comes out.
2. Roast the Pottukadalai for a few seconds.
3. The proportion of Ground Nut, Badam and Cashew can be according to our taste, preference and availability. Remove the husk of the Ground Nut and roast all the three separately. Cool all the ingredients.
4. Powder the sugar with the Cardamoms.
5. Powder all the ingredients one by one. Do not powder the nuts for a long time as they are oil based.
6. Mix well all the ingredients.
7. Heat Ghee and slowly mix with the powder. When you take in the hand and are able to make them into balls, stop adding the Ghee. Press into Laddus.
Note :
As it is better and easy to be made into balls as the Ghee is hot enough to be handled by our palms, divide the powder roughly into 2 halves and make in 2 batches, if your are doing alone. if there are 2 persons, it can be done in a single time.
For a small family 1/2 of all the ingredients are enough. So half of the powder can be kept in a fridge and made into Laddus, when we need.
