This is a quick and easy recipe of ladoo that I made recently using Complan health drink mix and semolina. The addition of Complan with its chocolaty taste gave a nice flavour and aroma to the ladoo. You can also try out other flavours like kesar badam and badam chocolate.
1 cup semolina/rava/sooji
¾ cup sugar
4 tbsp Complan (I used chocolate flavour)
4 tbsp Complan (I used chocolate flavour)
4 tbsp ghee
4 tbsp warm milk (or more)
4 to 5 tbsp Chopped cashew nuts
Method
- Heat 1 tbsp ghee in a pan and roast the cashews till golden.
- Transfer the cashews to a plate and keep ready.
- Add another tbsp of ghee to the same pan and add semolina. Roast for a few minutes in low flame till a nice aroma comes out.
- Switch off the gas and allow it to cool down completely.
- Add sugar and grind the semolina sugar mix to a powder. (You can grind it coarse or fine according to your preference.)
- Now transfer this to a bowl, add the roasted cashews, and complan and mix well.
- To this add 2 tbsp of hot melted ghee and mix.
- If the mix is very dry, add 1 or 2 tbsp of warm milk.
- Grease your hands with ghee and take small balls of the mix and shape to form ladoos. If necessary add some more milk. (This recipe makes 12 to 15 ladoos). After preparing all the ladoos, set aside for a few minutes to cool down. The ladoos will harden on cooling.
- Complan flavoured Semolina ladoos are now ready to be served.

Note:
You can skip milk and replace it with ghee if you wish to increase the shelf life of the ladoos.
