We make lot of recipes with wheat flour like chappathi, paratha,ada etc…But a laddu with wheat flour was new to me. I got this recipe from a magazine came under Diwali sweets. My first trail was a disaster 🙁 .I took 1/2 cup of ghee for 1 1/2 cup of wheat flour. I couldn’t able to make balls from that mixture. So we ate hose laddus in powder form 😉 . Next time I took more ghee and it was a success.
