Method
- 1Melt ghee in a heavy pan, add besan and roast on low — 12 minutes, stirring constantly till deep golden and fragrant.
- 2Add almond flour and milk powder; toast 2 more minutes.
- 3Off heat, stir in cardamom and salt; cool slightly till just warm to touch.
- 4Mix in jaggery — only when warm, never hot or it melts and ruins texture.
- 5Add half the chopped nuts.
- 6Shape into golf-ball laddus while still warm; press remaining nuts on top. Cools to firm-but-soft texture.
