Method
- 1
Dry roast Sanmati Rajgira Pith in a kadhai on low flame for 5–6 minutes until fragrant. Set aside.
- 2
In the same kadhai, heat ghee and add the roasted rajgira pith. Roast on low flame for 5–7 minutes, stirring continuously.
- 3
Add powdered jaggery or sugar and mix well. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the mixture comes together.
- 4
Remove from flame. Add cardamom and nuts. Let it cool slightly until manageable to touch.
- 5
Grease your palms with ghee and shape into round laddoos while still warm. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Shape laddoos while the mixture is still warm—it hardens as it cools.
- Use jaggery for a traditional vrat-friendly version.
- Rajgira is rich in protein and iron—a wholesome fasting sweet.
