Rava Laddu image

This is a popular Indian dessert recipe that I got from my Indian coworker's wife. It is VERY sweet, so if you don't like overly sweet desserts, you might want to adjust the semolina/sugar ratio accordingly.

Time 30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 cups semolina flour
7 cups white sugar
1 ½ tablespoons ground cardamom
½ cup ghee (clarified butter)
⅓ cup cashew nuts
1 cup hot milk

Steps:

  • Heat a large dry skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the semolina, and toast, stirring constantly. Stir in the sugar and cardamom while toasting until light brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes.
  • Heat a small amount of the ghee in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the cashews, and cook until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes. Add the cashews to the semolina along with the remaining ghee. Gradually stir hot milk into the semolina until it is thick enough to pack into a ball. Remove from heat, and form palm-sized balls. Let cool and serve.

These laddu are a great way to use up leftover rava. I always have some on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

These laddu are the perfect make-ahead snack. I made a batch on the weekend and they lasted all week. They're also really easy to pack for lunch or a road trip.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my laddu didn't turn out at all. They were too hard and crumbly.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my laddu turned out too dry. I think I might have overcooked the rava.

These laddu were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try these laddu because I'm not a big fan of rava, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were actually really good! The rava added a nice texture and flavor to the laddu.
