Red Rice Poha Laddu

Ingredients:

  • 1 heaped cup Aazol's Healthy Red Rice Poha (about 100g)
  • 1/3 cup jaggery, finely grated or powdered
  • 3 tablespoons ghee, plus a little more only if required
  • 8-10 cashews, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon raisins
  • 1 tablespoon milk, at room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • Instructions:

    1. Heat a heavy pan over low heat and add Aazol's Healthy Red Rice Poha. Dry-roast, stirring frequently, until the flakes become crisp and break easily between your fingers.

    2. Allow the roasted poha to cool slightly, then transfer it to a mixer jar with the jaggery.

    3. Grind to a fine to slightly coarse mixture, similar to fine semolina, and transfer it to a mixing bowl.

    4. Heat 1 tablespoon ghee in a small pan. Add the cashews and roast until lightly golden.

    5. Add the raisins and cardamom powder and cook briefly until the raisins begin to puff.

    6. Pour the warm ghee, cashews and raisins over the poha-jaggery mixture and combine well.

    7. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons ghee and mix. Add the milk and bring the mixture together.

    8. While the mixture is still slightly warm, take small portions and press firmly between your palms to shape round Laddu.

    9. If the mixture feels too dry to hold its shape, add a little more ghee, 1 teaspoon at a time.

    10. Allow the Laddu to set completely before serving or storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
