           Hello readers! Today I am going to show you how to make a sweet made in India called ladoo. Anyone that is not of Indian origin may not have heard about this dish. I assure you, however, these are very tasty and excellent to make for parties. Let's get started!

      You will need:

• 2 cups gram flour (besan)

• Assorted nuts [Example: pistachio(pista), raisins(kishmish),almond(badaam), etc.]
• 1/4 tsp cardamom powder(ilaichi powder)
• 1 tsp semolina(sooji)
• A pinch of salt (namak)

Steps

1. Take a microwave safe bowl and add the clarified butter (ghee) into it.
2. Keep the bowl in the microwave until the clarified butter (ghee)  has completely melted.
3. Add the semolina (sooji), the salt (namak),  and the gram flour (besan) to the completely melted clarified butter (ghee).
4. Stir the mixture thoroughly until it reaches a smooth consistency.
5. Put the mixture in the microwave for about two to three minutes depending on the power of your microwave.
6. Stir the mixture again until it is smooth and balanced out completely.

8. Add the nuts to your taste. Add as much nuts as you want but be careful, too much nuts can change the taste of the ladoos.
9. Put the mixture in the microwave for about one minute (yes; I know a lot of microwaving!).
10. Let the mixture cool down completely. This can take from fifteen to thirty minutes.
11. Once the mixture has cooled down, add the sugar (cheeni) and cardamom powder (ilaichi powder). Then, stir thoroughly.
