Rava Laddu(Semolina balls)/Suji ka Laddu

By October 20, 2013

Rava Laddu is made on special occasion.My mother in law is good at making those perfect round shape, so I took her help in making Laddu.My husband likes it very much,I dont really make it so I make my MIL do it when ever they visit here.It is usually made during festivals like Diwali and Krishna Jayanthi.It very simple to make but getting the right shape is very difficult.I always fight with rava laddu but still in training :( will get that round shape one day.So here it is one more sweet to all my friends who has been visiting the website.Red chilly curry just completed 2nd month.So here it is to all of you guys.

3.Now heat ghee in a wok and keep stirring it well,it should be really hot.Let it form little bubbles then switch it off.

4.Now add the cashew nuts and raisins to the rava/semolina mix and keep adding ghee little by little,keep pouring ghee in one hand and stir rava in another hand quickly.No lumps should be formed.

5.Start rolling the balls when the ghee is hot otherwise the ball will not come in shape.I had my mother in law help me roll it.It takes a lot of practice to get that perfect round shape but eventually you will get it.

6.Now roll all the ladoo to fine shape and keep it a air tight container.It will get hard in few mins.This can be consumed in 5 mins.You will get 20 balls.This is made as a special dish during festival time like Diwali and Krishna Jayanthi.
