Recipe
1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and semolina.
2
Add the melted ghee to the flour mixture and rub it thoroughly with your fingers until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
3
Gradually add warm water or milk to knead a very stiff, firm dough.
4
Divide the dough into small portions, shape them into thick oblong thumb prints, and press gently.
5
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-low heat and fry the shaped pieces until golden brown and cooked through.
6
Allow the fried pieces to cool completely, then break them into smaller chunks.
7
Transfer the chunks to a food processor or blender and pulse into a coarse, sandy powder (churma).
8
Mix in the grated jaggery, cardamom powder, and chopped dry fruits into the warm churma.
9
Drizzle a little warm desi ghee and shape the mixture tightly into round, compact ladoos with your palms.
10
Serve them alongside a small bowl of warm ghee for an authentic Haryanvi experience.
