Rava / Rawa Ladoo

Ingredients :

• 1 cupSuji rava 
• 1 cup Sugar
• 1/2 tsp Cardamom powder:
• 1/3 cup Ghee
• 7 - 8 Cashews (broken into bits)
• 10 - 15Raisins

Method :

Take a heavy bottomed kadai. Add 2 tbsp of ghee to it. Once hot, fry the cashews and raisins till golden brown. Keep aside. Add the rava and elaichi powder. Fry till a yummy aroma arises and it turns golden brown. Do this on a low flame. Let it cool down.Once it is cool enough for the mixie, run the rava and elaichi powder in the mixie till it becomes a reasonably fine powder. Run it a couple of times if the rava is stubborn. Empty into a large basin.Now, powder the sugar. Add it to the rava in the basin.Introduce the cashews, raisins and the grated coconut into the basin.Mix very well. Heat the remaining ghee. Pour on top of this mixture. Make firm ladoos quickly. If making of the ladoos are a trouble, add a little more ghee to it. Else, sprinkle some warm milk on the mixture and try again.Serve when cool.
