Back at Chennai, my MIL always prepares boondhi laddu and my baby used to gobble them up. So, I asked myself why not try some? But, apart from boondhi laddu, I liked motichoor laddu that hangs around every sweet shop. Garnished with silver varq and opped with nuts, these are most delicious and one will definitely experience melt in mouth moment.
Originally hailing from Central Bihar, Motichoor laddu (Moti means pearl) are nothing but deep-fried gramflour, mixed in sugar syrup, flavoured with saffron threads, rose water, nuts and shaped into laddu. Though they look like boondhi laddu, the methodology differ because motichoor laddu are fried till they reach pale yellow/golden colour and is removed. And after soaking in sugar syrup they are mixed with warm water and is blended once which is not the same with boondhi laddu. Warm water, thus added aids in much softer texture to motichoor laddu comparing to later.
Yes, my daughter loved it and better half was completely impressed. Apart from the fact that they turned successful, they consume lesser time too!! About one batch can be done within an hour, isn't it an boon? :D Follow the entire post for tips
