Ingredients:

Ragi Flour 1 Cup*

Roasted Gram Dal 1/2 Cup

Grated Jaggery 1.5 Cups

Cardamom Powder 1/2 teaspoon

Ghee 1/4 Cup

First lets dry roast the ragi flour. Ragi flour has a raw smell that will make the dish less appetizing. So, its better to roast the ragi flour and get rid off the raw smell. Heat a pan and dry roast the ragi flour for 8-10 minute in medium flame. Do not increase the flame, the flour may get burnt. So always keep the flame in medium or low. In a mixer jar, take walnuts and roasted gram dal.

Grind the gram dal and walnuts to a nice powder. Add this powder in a separate mixing bowl. In the mixer jar, take ragi flour and grated jaggery and give couple of pulse so that the ragi flour and jaggery are nicely mixed and incorporated together

Add this ragi-jaggery powder to the mixing bowl. Mix the nuts and ragi-jaggery mixture nicely. Heat the ghee and melt it and pour it in the ragi mixture. 

Using a spoon, mix the ragi-mixture well. Then start making lemon sized ladoos out
