Rava Laddoo



HAPPY NAVRATHRI TO ALL MY BUDDY BLOGGERS & VISITORS!!!

Navarathri Golu is one of my favorite Indian festivals where we get to see lots and lots of beautiful dolls. This year I got some help from my children cleaning up the dolls, setting kolu padi, giving manjal kumkumam to friends etc. Yesterday for Neivedyam I prepared Rava laddoo. It is a traditional Indian sweet made from semolina/rava  and sugar and bound together with ghee to form small balls.Everyone make this ladoo in different version. I prepared this laddoo in different way and it just melts in your mouth. Here is my version of this recipe!
