Steps

1

Roast the Rava in 2 tbsp ghee (clarified butter) until the colour starts to change. Let it cool down half way through. Mix the sugar, roasted rava and cardamom powder, put in dry grinder and fine grind it. Heat a pan with the remaining clarified butter. Toss in the cashewnuts and then the raisins. Add to the pan the grinded Rava-sugar mixture and mix well. Turn off the heat.

If you can handle the hot Rava mixture then right way you can shape into tight laddoos (small round balls) or wait until its little bit cool. When the mixture is hot it is advisable to roll out tight laddoos as the butter will hold the mixture together.

Apply 2 drops of oil or ghee on your palm and roll out the mixture in smalls rounds. During the process of rolling out, if the mixture becomes cold, you can reheat it again and then roll out. Garnish with raisins or cashewnuts. Place it in the fridge for an hour, so the laddoos are set. There after the laddus can be relished anytime and it can be stored in an airtight container for 1 to 2 weeks.
