Motichoor Ladoo instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, add besan and water gradually so that there are no lumps to form a watery batter. Add Kesari powder and combine it well. (If you add too much water all at once, the lumps will end up).
2. Heat a pan and fry boondis on medium-hot oil using a tiny hole ladle. The temperature of the oil should be a little high; when you drop the batter, it should float on the surface of the oil. (Note: Instead of a ladle, I used an aluminum foil container putting a hole on the surface with the help of a broad needle.).
3. For the syrup, dissolve sugar and water in a pan and bring it to a boil, and let it boil for two minutes. Add cardamom and a pinch of Kesari powder..
4. Turn off the heat and add boondis to the syrup and mix it well. Then turn on the heat, keep it at low fame and allow boondis to absorb the syrup well. This will take a minimum of 8 minutes. After that, add chopped cashew nuts and ghee..
5. Mix it well and turn off the heat; let it cool down a little. When it's a little hot, start making ladoos. Enjoy..
