Ingredients

Garnish

Cardamom — 2 piece (ground)

Main

Gram Flour — 100 g (whole)
sugar — 0.5 cup (whole)
Water — 60 ml (whole)

Method

Whisk the gram flour with water into a smooth, lump-free batter of medium-flowing consistency.
Heat oil in a kadai; pour the batter through a perforated ladle (jhaara) directly into the hot oil to form tiny boondi pearls; fry briefly until just cooked but soft, then drain.
In a separate pan, boil the sugar with a little water to a one-string sugar syrup; stir in the cardamom powder.
Add the fried boondi to the warm sugar syrup and mix gently; let it soak and soften for a few minutes.
While still warm, take small portions and shape into soft, round laddus.
Let the laddus cool and set before serving.
