ALMOND AND GOJI BERRY BOONDI LADDOO RECIPE

Serves: 4 people (2 Boondi laddoo each)

Ingredients Quantity
For ladoo batter
Besan 1 ½ cup
Water 1 cup
Cardamom powder ½ tsp
Roasted Almond slivers ¼ cup
Goji berry 3 tbsp
Ghee ¾ tbsp.
Sunflower oil for deep frying
For the Sugar Syrup
Sugar 1 ½ cup
Water ¾ cup
Saffron strands a pinch

METHOD:

● Take sugar, saffron strands and water in a pan, and put it over low flame. Cook the syrup till a single
string consistency is achieved. Keep the sugar syrup hot.
● Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan.
● Mix besan, and cardamom powder together and add water to it to form a batter.
● To check the consistency of the boondi batter drop a few droplets of the better in hot oil, if it
becomes flat, the batter is thin and if it has peaks, the batter is thick.
● To make the batter thick add some more besan and to make the batter thin add some water.
● To make boondis, hold a perforated ladle over hot oil, using a spoon spread the boondi batter over
the perforated spoon; make sure that the perforated spoon and the pandon’t have much height
between them or else the boondis will not be round.
● Do not over-fry the boondis and do not crisp them.
● Remove them from oil once the oil stops to sizzle and put it in the sugar syrup. Strain the boondis
from the syrup.
● Mix the boondis with almond slivers and goji berries and add around a tbsp of ghee for the binding.
● Make golf-sized roundels and shape them. Use ghee so the mixture does not stick on hands.
