Rava (semolina) ladoo

Makes nearly 20 ladoos

Ingredients:

1 cup rava (sooji or semolina)
3/4 cup sugar (can add 1 or 2 tablespoons extra if you prefer it to be more sweeter)
1/4 cup ghee (clarified butter)
1 cardamom(elachi)
1 tablespoon milk (optional , I skipped it coz sprinkling milk makes it's shelf life less)
8 to 10 cashewnuts( I skipped this)

Method:

Dry roast the rava till a nice aroma comes ,making sure not to burn it by continuously stirring it.Roast it evenly and let it cool down,after that grind it into a very fine powder using a mixer.Powder the sugar into a fine powder too along with the cardamom.Transfer the powdered rava and powdered sugar to a large bowl .Before that if you want you can sieve both together to get a smooth finish ladoo. Fry broken cashews in a tablespoon of ghee and slightly heat the rest of the ghee and add it to the rava and sugar mixture.If wanted sprinkle milk and mix thoroughly.Make small balls and adjust the ghee and milk quantity by sprinkling more if it is too dry.
