Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl add coarse gram flour, baking soda and orange food color. Mix well.
  • Then gradually add water and make thin and pouring consistency of the batter.
  • Cover and rest the batter for 15-20 minutes.
  • Then add the required water and make the perfect consistency of the batter.
  • Now, heat ghee in a pan. hold the jhara 3-4 inches above the ghee. I use a steel canister and then place the jhara on top to give it support. It helps to have support when you shake the jhara vigorously after pouring the batter.
  • Once the ghee is hot, pour batter on jhara and move it up and down quickly. A small tiny ball adds to the ghee.
  • Let the boondis cook in hot ghee for 30 to 40 seconds only.
  • Remove the fried boondi from the large sieve and repeat until all tiny boondis are fried and the batter is over. Make sure to clear jhara after every batch.
  • In a pan, add melon seeds and pistachio slits. Roast for a few minutes.
  • Now in a pan, add sugar and water. let sugar syrup come to a boil and then add cardamom powder, orange food color and lemon juice.
  • Cook sugar syrup until it reaches 1-string consistency.
  • Switch off the gas and add fried boondi and dry fruits. Mix well
  • Let cool completely and take a small portion of boondi mixture and roll it between your palms to make motichoor ladoo.
  • Serve or store motichoor ladoo in the refrigerator for 6-7 days.

Notes

  • boondi batter has smooth and free-flowing consistency.
  • fry boondi on high heat.
  • place the ladle 3-4 inches above the surface of ghee.
  • wipe the ladle before you make the next batch.
  • one string consistency for motichoor ladoo.
  • sugar syrup must be hot while soaking boondi.
  • boondi become soft when sugar syrup completely absorbs in it.
