MAIWE KA LADDU-
(MIX DRY FRUIT LADDU)
MY MUM'S RECIPE

INGREDIENTS:

1 kg Plain flour
1 cup Sugar
1 and 3/4 cup ghee (possibly 2 cups)
1/2 plate Almonds
1/2 plate pistachos (little less than half)
150g pine nut
1/2 plate cashew nuts
1 plate Makkana
1/2 cup coconut finely cut
12-15 pieces dried dates( chuwara) finely cut
1/2 plate of fried ghond
1/2 plate of walnut
ghee for frying

METHOD:

-Blanch fry all the dried fruits, preferably in ghee for few minute. N.B. Fry the walnuts and ghond last, as they will make the pan and ghee have an unwanted black residue.
-Leave to cool on the side
-Once cooled flash chop the nuts in a chopper to a chunky piece finish, (roughly pieces should be about 5mm cubed).
-Next in a big heavy bottom pot put in the plain flour
-On a low flame dry roast the flour until golden brown and a nice roasted aroma fills the air.
-Once the flour is roasted then add the ghee and mix in well.
-Next add the chopped fried dried fruits and mix them in well.
-Lastly add the sugar and working quickly mix it in and turn of the heat.
-Working quickly but carefully take small hand fulls of the still quite hot mixture and work them into laddus (balls), squeeze gently as you work them into balls as they will be: firstly very hot still and secondly will break easily if pressed too firmly. (if it is too hot to handle leave it on the side for 5-10 minutes but don't let it cool down completely, it still needs to be warm enough for the sugar and ghee to bind it into balls)

These Laddus are recommended for women after they have given birth to help heal and restore their health and strength 1-2 a day especially in the first 40 days after given birth. ( But you can eat them anytime too yum!)
