Children’s day wishes to All….happy children’s day. I’m here with a two quick recipes, which happens to be the most favorite of all the children irrespective of the age.

But the most specialty of this day at our place is, today happens to be my second son Mukund’s birth day as well.

Therefore it’s like both children’s day and Mukund’s birth day a double celebrations every year for us and obviously I should make his choice of sweet and savoury dish which also shall be the children’s day special sweet and snack, right ?

RAVE-BESAN LAADU

Made rave-besan laadu/ladoo & chakli today. To the rave-besan laadu, unlike every time I have put roasted melon seeds instead of regular cashews, almonds etc.

PROCEDURE :

  • Dry roast semolina until raw smell vanishes, remove to a plate
  • Dry roast gram flour until raw smell vanishes, add in roasted semolina, 1/2 tbsp ghee, roasted melon seeds and cardamom powder, roast everything well until you get nice aroma on low heat
  • Remove to a separate bowl or plate, add in powdered sugar and remaining 2 tbsp of ghee and bind into laadus/ladoos

RICE FLOUR CHAKLI

Though made chakli using the same regular ingredients, except for a small change, ie… I have put melted, cooled (at room temperature) home made ghee instead of hot oil or butter etc and believe me it has turned out to be so tasty !

Ingredients for making chakli : measuring cup used – 250 ml

  • Rice flour – 1 cup
  • Black gram flour/uddina hittu -1/4 cup
  • White sesame seeds – 2 tbsp
  • Ghee – 2 tbsp (melted & @ room temperature)
  • Hing – 1/4 tsp
  • Salt – 1/3 tsp (adjust)

PROCEDURE :

  • Put all the other ingredients, combine well, add in required water and knead well into soft, stiff dough and set aside covered for 15 to 20 minutes
