Before coming to Secundrabad I was living in my sweet home at Kalady in Trivandrum. When I was about 5yrs of age there were about 15 to 20 houses in that residential area and among that houses about 5 or 6 ladies were working and all others were housewives After finishing their jobs they all will use to come to our house to have chat with my mother.
Once when we were planning to go to my parents hometown and my mother was going to buy some sweets then our neighbours told her why to buy something instead of that make some thing and give.
They all told her that they will help her in making some sweet and then they all decided to make Boondi Ladoo.
It was such a fun all came to our house and with 1 kg of basan they made about 150 ladoos.And it was just a starting then when were we went to my parents home town they all helped my mother in making halwa, cocunut burfi,maa-laadoo etc
Good old memories now some of them are there in Kalady and some are not around us. May their soul rest in piece.
Ingredients
For Batter
Basan Powder with out lumbs - 1 cup
Water - 1/2 cup
For Sugar Syrup
Sugar - 1(1/2) cup
Water - 1/4 cup
Kesar Powder - a pinch
Cardamom Powder - 1/4 tsp
Cashews/Almonds - 1tbsp
And most important thing is to have a sieve with round holes
Method of preparation
First prepare the batter and the consistency is that it should be drippy through the sieve with round holes
Take pan and make the sugar syrup by adding sugar,water,kesar,cardamom and boil till the consistency reaches more than 1/2 thread.
Now heat the oil in a pan and 1(1/2) inches of oil should be there now pour the some of the batter in the sieve and tap it with spoon so that the batter starts dropping through the whole.Drop enough boondi's to cover the oil and when it starts light brown in colour but not crispy then take them out and put it in sugar syrup and mix it well. Now repeat the same thing with the balance batter.After all the boondi's are mixed and there is extra syrup just drain off.
After the whole batter is finished and it starts cooling or we can say it can be handled make lemon sized balls out of it.But remember we can make balls only when it is warm so don't allow it to cool.
