Tips & Secrets
- Using coarse gram flour (Laddu Besan) is the absolute secret to achieving the traditional professional-grade grainy texture.
- Adding a tablespoon of semolina (Suji) provides an extra layer of professional-grade crunch if using fine flour.
- Wait until the mixture is lukewarm before adding sugar to provide the essential professional stability to the spheres.
- Kneading the mixture well before rolling ensures the professional-grade ladoos are smooth and do not professional-grade crumble.
