Motichur Laddu is a very soft and mouthwatering sweet made with besan/gram flour, ghee and sugar mixed with nuts and flavoured with cardamom powder. It is one of my favourite dishes, specially made for Diwali, Ganesh Chaturthi, and it is perfect for all occasions and mostly served as a prasad. There are many different laddus like, besan, whole wheat, coconut, rava and sesame laddu. Boondi laddu is different from motichur laddu. Motichur laddu is made with tiny boondis. This type of laddu is more popular in North India than in South India. Boondi ladles are available exclusively for making this laddu, but I have mentioned a recipe that is easily made without the ladle.
Notes
- Boondi batter should be in a dosa batter consistency, too thick or diluted batter may spoil the dish.
- It is necessary to add baking soda, without adding baking soda the boondi will not come out pearly.
- I added 200 grams of sugar to 100 grams of gram flour, which is the perfect amount, but you can adjust sugar to your liking.
- When the sugar syrup is boiling, boil it till it becomes viscous and does not boil it till it becomes sticky.
- I have added little chopped cashew nuts, but instead, you can add dried melon seeds, pistachios and almonds.
