RAVA LADOO

RAVVA LADOO
The only simple sweet that is kids favorite is Rava ladoo.  As a kid I remember my Grand Mother making these ladoos when ever I went to her place during holidays. This is one of the simplest sweets and you can make it in a jiffy. There are two different ways of making these. The first one is very simple and uses milk to make the ladoos, but these cannot be stored for a longer time. The second one is also simple and the laddos can be stored for a longer time. Sugar syrup is used in the second method instead of milk. I will give both the versions. Choose the easy one for you.
INGREDIENTS
  • Sooji/semolina          1 cup
  • Sugar                          1 cup
  • Milk                             2 Tsp.(for the 1st method
  • Water                          1/2 cup(for the 2nd method)
  • Ghee                            3 Tsp.
  • Nuts                              3 Tsp.
  • Cardamom powder    1/2 tsp.
PROCEDURE
METHOD 1
Heat ghee in a pan add the nuts of your choice, fry them and remove them into a bowl. In the same pan add the sooji and fry it on a very slow flame till a nice aroma is felt and sooji turns slightly golden brown.
Slightly cool it and add the sugar, cardamom and fried nuts.
Now add milk little by little and roll the ladoos.
METHOD 2
Heat ghee in a pan add the nuts of your choice, fry them and remove them into a bowl. In the same pan add the sooji and fry it on a very slow flame till a nice aroma is felt and sooji turns slightly golden brown.
Heat another pan and add the sugar and water. Let the sugar melt and come to a boil. Now switch off the flame and add the fried sooji, cardamom and nuts.
Transfer it onto a plate. Let the mixture cool and make the ladoos.
