boondi ladoo recipe /boondi ladduFull worth of Diwali is recognized only with the presence of sweets and without relishing a mouth full of sweets diwali would become incomplete!sharing gifts and sweets brings prosperity and happiness and all through these festive days we are excited and over enthusiastic.Many forms of sweet gifts are in trend today that are modern and very different but traditional authentic sweets that are in regular practice is always something close to the heart.boondi ladoo recipe /boondi ladduSweet and savory preparations starts a week ahead before diwali mainly to gift neighbors, friends and relatives and in turn loads of gifts arrive home from their end!filling our tummies with full varieties of sweet surprises.Boondi ladoo, is a trademark special diwali sweet but making is not identical although the procedure is same!the way we make creates all the difference but it tastes just wonderful and it continuous to exist as top on the sweets lists.I loved these ladoo’s because of its crumbly texture all because of sugar syrup that holds the laddu’s and don’t fry boondi’s crisp as we do it for kara boondi just should be fried over on a high flame for seconds and remove it.Don’t try to shape ladoo’s when it is still hot shape ladoo’s when it becomes luke warm.I have made sugar syrup of single string consistency and if you make laddu’s with half string stage then the laddu texture will be different from the ladoo’s made from single thread consistency.

Notes

Always be careful if you are adding camphor if added more then whole recipe will be a mess and its optional.
If you find the boondi forms tails then your batter is thick so add needed water and test till you get round boondi's.
If the batter is too thin then you can always correct by adding more besan.
The syrup consistency is important and you can make ladoo's by wetting your hands with water now and then when making ladoo's.
Adding colour is purely optional.
Oil should be nicely hot when frying boondi's and don't fry for much time other wise the boondi's will become crisp.
When making balls the oil from the boondi will ooze and it will be easy to make the balls.
