Ingredients
  • Pearl millet flour – 1 bowl
  • Salt – ¼ tbsp.
  • Ghee – 4 tbsp.
  • Hot water – to knead the flour.
  • Jaggery – 1 cup
  • Almonds – 1 tbsp.
  • Cashew – 2 tbsp.
  • Raisins – 1 tbsp.
Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, add pearl millet flour, salt, ghee and hot water in batches to get a hard dough.
  2. Knead the dough for a while so that we get mild stickiness. This helps in making chapatti shape.
  3. As rolling cannot be done with this dough, we make the shape of the disc directly by pressing with fingers.
  4. To make it easy, make use of a polythene sheet and little ghee. ( I have used oil packing cover as polythene sheet as it's greasy.)
  5. Grease frying pan either with oil or ghee and gently place dough sheet and roast till its golden colour on both sides.
  6. Once these sheets are cooled, crush them into small pieces and add jaggery to them.
  7. Put this mix in a mixer grinder and grind to make a soft paste.
  8. Transfer this paste to a mixer bowl and keep it aside.
  9. Heat ghee in a tadka and roast dry fruits till they turn golden brown. Pour this mixture over millet dough while it's hot.
  10. Mix the whole mixture and take a small portion of dough and roll to get round shapes.
  11. Perl Millet Laddu or Kambu Laddu Recipe should be consumed within 3 days or else it becomes sour.
