Ingredients - Quantity
- Soya Nano Chunks - ½ cup
- Besan (Gram Flour) - 1 cup
- Ghee - ¼ cup
- Sugar (Powdered) - ¾ cup
- Cardamom Powder - ½ tsp
- Chopped Nuts - ¼ cup
- Sesame Seeds (optional) - 1 tbsp
- Grated Coconut (optional) - 2 tbsp

- Oil - 2 tbsp
Cooking Instruction
- Boil soya nano chunks in water with a pinch of salt for 5-7 minutes until soft. Drain and squeeze out excess water.
- Dry roast the soya nano chunks in a pan for 3-4 minutes until they turn slightly crisp. Keep aside.
- Heat ghee in a pan and roast the besan on low flame for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and aromatic.
- Stir continuously to avoid burning. The besan should release a nutty aroma when ready.
- Turn off the heat and add roasted soya nano chunks, powdered sugar, cardamom powder, sesame seeds, grated coconut, and chopped nuts to the roasted besan.
- Mix well while the mixture is warm.
- Grease your palms with ghee and shape the mixture into small round ladoos while it’s still warm.
- If the mixture feels dry, add a little more melted ghee and mix again.
- Let the ladoos cool and set for 1 hour before storing them in an airtight container.
