RAVA LADOO RECIPE

  • Semolina or Rava (Medium sized) – 1 cup
  • Sugar – 1 Cup
  • Grated Coconut – 1/2 Cup
  • Ghee – 3 Tbsp + 1 Tbsp for frying Dry fruits
  • Cardamom Powder – 1/2 tsp
  • Cashew Nuts
  • Raisins
Time to Prepare: 15 min
How to Make Rava Laddu or Rava Ladoo:
  1. Heat 3 Tbsp Ghee in a frying pan, add Rava and fry until you see a slight change in color.
  2. At this stage, add the Grated Coconut to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes. Then, switch off the flame.
  3. Heat a Tbsp Ghee in a small frying pan, add Cashew Nuts and Raisins and fry until they turn to golden brown in color; keep aside.
  4. In another pan or vessel, add Sugar and little water (just enough to immerse the Sugar) and boil until there is one threadlike consistency. Prepare the Sugar syrup and switch off the flame.
  5. Now add the fried Rava, Grated Coconut mixture, and Cardamom Powder to the Sugar syrup and mix well with a spatula. 
  6. Leave the mixture to cool for 10 minutes so that you can prepare Laddus by taking the mixture in hand.
  7. Form the Laddu by taking a small portion of mixture in hand and add the fried Cashew Nuts and Raisins in the middle or top of the each Laddu as in the image. Proceed in the same way for other Rava Laddus and arrange them on a plate to cool and harden a little.
