A traditional sweet delicacy from Bihar made with sun-dried coarse rice flour, jaggery, and aromatic spices. These rustic roundels offer a delightful melt-in-the-mouth texture and rich earthy flavors.
Dry roast the coarse rice flour in a heavy-bottomed pan on low heat until it turns aromatic and slightly golden, taking care not to burn it.
2
Transfer the roasted rice flour to a large mixing bowl and allow it to cool down to room temperature.
3
Add the grated dry coconut, chopped nuts, and green cardamom powder to the flour mixture.
4
In a separate small pan, gently melt the pure ghee and let it cool slightly before pouring it over the flour mixture.
5
Add the powdered jaggery to the bowl and mix everything thoroughly using your fingertips to ensure the jaggery and ghee are evenly incorporated.
6
Take small portions of the mixture in your palms and press firmly to shape them into round laddus, using a few drops of warm milk if the mixture feels too dry to bind.
7
Allow the laddus to set completely for an hour before serving or storing them in an airtight container.
