• Heat a wide pan on a medium-low flame; add urad dal & dry roast for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown colour. Turn off the flame & let it cool at room temperature.

• Add roasted urad dal to a dry mixie jar & grind into a fine powder. Add to powdered sugar & mix everything well.
• Lightly warm ghee in the same pan on a medium-low flame & turn off the flame. Pour warm ghee little by little to the urad dal mixture & make round laddus (yields 12-14 laddus).
