Ingredients

100 grams of gum

1/2 cup almonds

1/2 cup cashews

50 grams of pistachios

1 teaspoon cardamom powder

1 teaspoon dry ginger powder

500 grams flour

400 grams ghee

250 grams sugar

Cooking instructions

30 minutes

1. To make Gond Laddu, first collect all the ingredients. Do not take very big pieces of gum, if it is big then cut it into small pieces so that it is easy to fry and the gum does not harden. Now heat ghee in a pan.

2. When the ghee is hot, add gum to it. Keep the flame slow because the gum can burn on high flame. The gum will start swelling slowly. When it swells, turn it over and fry it from the other side as well. The gum will double its size. Now take it out and keep it in a plate. In this way fry all the gum and keep it aside.

3. Add dry fruits in the remaining ghee and fry lightly for 2-3 minutes. Then take them out and put them in the mixer jar after they cool down.

4. Grind these dry fruits coarsely and keep them in a plate. Now put the gum in the jar and grind it. If you want, you can mash the gum by pressing it lightly with a masher.

5. Again add ghee in the pan and fry the flour on low flame. Keep stirring the flour continuously. It may take 10-15 minutes to fry it. Gradually the color of the flour will start changing.

6. Now add sugar powder to it and mix it well. Sugar gets mixed well in hot flour, which also makes it easy to make laddus. Then add dry fruits and gum to it and mix it well.

7. When the flour becomes light brown after roasting, add dry ginger powder to it. Then turn off the gas, but let the pan remain hot. Keep stirring for 2-3 minutes more because the flour at the bottom may get roasted more due to the heat of the pan. Then add cardamom powder and mix well.

8. After mixing all the ingredients well, now make laddus of the size as per your requirement. Once all the laddus are made, store them in an air tight box. You can easily store and eat these laddus for 1 month.
