Boondi ladoo – how to prepare Boondi ladoo recipe

By BINDU Leave a Comment

Boondi-Ladoo

Boondi Ladoo is a popular south Indian delicacy,mainly offered as naivedyam to GOD in almost all famous temples. I like Temple laddu very much. infact everyone likes it.The taste of homemade laddu slightly differs from temple laddu.

This is the first time i prepared Boondi Ladoo. they turned out fantastic. most of  our relatives belong to Vijayawada. There they give very much importance to homemade sweets.everyone prepares different varieties of sweets and savories on festivals. They start to prepare them before one week. almost half portion of their pantries are filled with heavy cooking vessels and big ladles….etc.nearby neighbors form into a group and prepare all sweets in one day for a single household.next day again they gather at a place and prepare for another household.

Whenever i saw them making preparations, i feel like lady soldiers with weapons and armour going to battlefield.They don’t even care  if the hot oil spills on their hands while cooking. my maternal grandparents used to send all the sweets and savories through transport till they were alive. 🙁

For this recipe i didn’t use cooking soda while preparing batter.because the boondi absorbs oil. i mentioned to keep a strainer to strain out the oil from boondi. but my boondi didn’t absorb any oil.if you are preparing boondi for kara boondi you need to add a little cooking soda to get crispy boondi. i have added little khova/mawa.and the taste was almost like temple laddu.
