Bajra is called Kambu in Tamil .It is called pearl millet also.It is very rich in iron.These laddoos are very helpful for those who are watching their weight.Because they are full of fiber so help in weight loss.My grandmother made these laddoos in winter season.They are healthy and nutritive.Good for diabetics. It is goold to make Bajra powder at home than using readymade Bajra powder. Shashi Tewari
