# Ingredients For Sesame And Jaggery Laddus....

1. Roasted sesame seeds......200 gram
2. Small jaggery pieces.....200 gram
3. Deshi ghee....2 Table spoon full

# Method of Making.....

1.  Clean the Sesame seeds well.
Sieve it in the wheat flour strainer first and then check it if any impurity is there.

2. Now heat a heavy bottomed kadhai on the medium flame and dry roast the Sesame seeds till light brown only.
The roasted sign is that sesame seeds become little puffy and you can press  them.

It will take 7 minutes only.

Then take out the Sesame seeds from the wok or kadhai otherwise they will turn into dark brown and will become a little bitter in taste.
Let it cool down.

3. Now cut the jaggery into small pieces so that it will get melted easily.

4. Then grind the 150 gram roasted sesame seeds in the mixer jar coarsely. ..( Tharthara in Hindi )
And let the 50 gram sesame seeds remain the same as whole.

5. Now heat the same kadhai on the medium slow flame and add deshi ghee in it.

6. As the ghee melts up...just add crushed jaggery in the kadhai and stir it continuously.

7. As the jaggery turns in the syrup...just immediately off the flame.
Don't over cook it.... otherwise laddus will not be soft in taste and texture.

You need only melted jaggery syrup without any thread.

This is the important step of the recipe.

8. Now add  all the roasted and grinded Sesame seeds in the jaggery syrup.
Mix it well.

9. Now you have to make Laddus as the mixture is hot.

For This....there is a technique...
Keep a bowl of cold water ready.

Just take a little portion of laddu from the hot kadhai...press it in your palm and make it round with your wet hands.
And place it in a plate.

Or first wet your hands with water...and then start Making laddus as you are comfortable.

( You can apply ghee also on your hands for Making laddus in place of water.
But it is little hard in Making laddus.)

10. In this way, prepare all the laddus.

11. As the mixture becomes cool while Making laddus...then you have to make it 
warm a little so that you will get some moisture in the mixture of laddu.

For This...take out the laddu mixture in a bowl and place it in the fast boiling water container....as it heats up....
Just bind your remaining laddu with oily or wet hands.

( You can heat up the kadhai....But then you will get hard dough of laddu.)

In this way.... "Sesame seeds and jaggery laddu" are ready to enjoy and serve.

You can enjoy these laddu till months.

These are the Special worship laddu...on "Makar Sankrati" and "Sakat Chauth".

#  Things To Remember...

1. Roast the Sesame seeds till light brown only. Just off the flame, stir it for few seconds and take out in a bowl.

2. Don't over cook the jaggery...the purpose is just Making the jaggery syrup for laddu.
No need of any thread.
As the jaggery melts with the ghee well...just off the flame.

By doing so...you will get very delicious and soft in taste.

3. Be fast in making laddu...just press a little mixture and make it round with wet hands.
