Besan Ka Laddoo is an all-time favourite and made on several special occasions and festivals. The trick to getting this sweet right is in browning the besan (gram flour) perfectly.

Ingredients:

• 4 cups besan (bengal gram flour)
• 2 cups ghee (clarified butter)
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp cardamom powder

Preparation:

• Melt the ghee over a medium flame, in a thick-bottomed pan.
• Add the besan and brown till you get a cooked aroma from it. The besan will also turn darker as it cooks and when done should be a deep golden brown color. This browning process can take up roughly 20 minutes.
• Add the cardamom and mix well.
• Turn off the fire and mix in the powdered sugar. Stir well.
• Allow the mix to cool.
• When cool, form into golf ball-sized rounds. Place on a lightly greased, flat tray till they set well.
• Store in an air-tight container in a cool place.
