Method

  1. Soak the dried mahua flowers in water for a few hours until soft, then drain well and lightly chop.
  2. Heat the mustard oil in a heavy pan and sauté the soaked mahua flowers on low flame until their moisture reduces and they turn aromatic and lightly roasted.
  3. Add the jaggery and a pinch of salt, mixing well, and cook on low flame until the jaggery melts and coats the mahua evenly into a sticky mixture.
  4. Add the cardamom powder and mix thoroughly.
  5. Let the mixture cool slightly until warm enough to handle, then shape into small round laddus. Cool completely before storing.
