I can't imagine Lohri and Sankranti without Churma. I remember my dad making churma with parathas, gur and ghee. A very simple and rustic dish with lots of love. So churma is something which is very close to my heart. SO this year I tried this typical churma recipe. I have sweetened it with gur instead of sugar so this makes it a very healthy and nutritious recipe. Addition of lots of ghee and nuts makes it rich as well.

Steps

1 hour 30 minut

1

Add 1/2 cup of ghee to 2 cups of whole wheat atta. Mix well till it resembles bread crumbs and binds well.
2

Using little warm milk, knead a firm dough. Keep kneading for 4-5 minutes once everything has come together.
3

Preheat ghee in a karahi and once it heats up lower the gas to minimum and wait for a while. Pinch out small portions of the dough and flatten them to make small puris. They shouldn't be too thick.
4

Deep fry the puris on very low heat till they are cooked through. This is going to take a lot of time so be patient and do not increase the flame. Once they turn dark golden they should be done.
5

Once the puris cool down totally, break them into small pieces. Now grind them to a coarse powder in a grinder. Keep aside.
6

Slightly roast the nuts, this is very optional. you can just add the nuts without chopping.
7

Heat 1 tbsp of ghee and add the besan and suji. Roast them on low flame till aromatic and golden.
8

Add the roasted besan and suji to the powdered laddu mix. Also add the cardamom powder. Mix well.
9

Also add the chopped nuts.
10

Heat 1/2 cup ghee in a kadai, add 2 cups of gur. Melt it completely. Add the melted gur and ghee to the laddu mix.
11

Mix it all well. And once it cools a little make small laddus. Cool it completely before eating.
12

Yummy and healthy churma gud laddus are ready.
