    When festivals fall on a weekday, you can opt for these simple Ladoos instead of kheer or any other time consuming dessert. These are very easy to prepare and can be distributed to friends and neighbours on special occasions as well.

    What is Navadhanya

    Ingredients for Navadhanya Ladoo

    Step by Step Instructions

    Dry roast each grain separately on low flame for 4-5 mins till nicely roasted and till nice aroma comes.

    Transfer to a wide to a plate and let it cool down to room temperature.

    Finally dry roast cashew nuts and almonds. Once they turn slightly brown, remove and let it cool down.

    Once cooled down, add the ingredients little by little to a mixer ginder and grind it to a powder.

    When almost done, add jaggery & cardamom powder. Grind again.

    Once well combined, transfer the mixture to a wide plate. Melt some ghee, add it to the ground mixture.

    When the mixture is warm, take small portions and make navadhanya ladoos.

    Notes

    Proportion of grains , quantity of jaggery can be altered.

    Here, I have used peanuts with the skin. If you prefer to remove the skin after roasting, do so and then grind the peanuts.

    Ghee is used for a nice flavour and for binding the ingredients together. So, just a little is enough.

    These ladoos can be stored in an air tight container , in room temperature for 10 days.

    The ladoo mixture can be smooth or coarse. I kept it slightly coarse.

    Adding nuts is optional in this recipe.

    Ladoos can be made easily when the mixture is warm. If you find it difficult to hold them together, slightly heat the mixture and try again.
