Tips & Secrets

  • Using a specialized fine-hole ladle is mandatory for achieving the traditional professional-grade tiny boondi.
  • The boondi must be soft, not crisp; this is the absolute secret to achieving the melt-in-mouth professional-grade texture.
  • Ensure the sugar syrup is warm when adding the boondi to provide the essential professional-grade juice absorption.
  • Adding a little hot water during the final mixing stage ensures the professional-grade ladoos stay moist for longer.
