"Sunnundalu" is one of the mouth watering recipes of Andhra which could be prepared either using Jaggery or Cane Sugar. I opted for the Jaggery version as my other sweets for the festival were made out of Cane Sugar. Bellam Sunnundalu is a healthy sweet treat for the kids as its made out of Urad Dal totally. Due to Jaggery, Bellam Sunnundalu might be little... sticky in your mouth compared to the Sunnundalu made with just sugar. Very simple to make with less ingredients and less time. Try making these yummy laddoos for the coming diwali and enjoy.
Ingredients
Urad Dal Flour / Minapappu Flour - 1 Cup
Cardamom Powder / Elachi Powder - 2 tsp
Jaggery - 1 Cup
Melted Ghee - 1/2 cup
Method
- Dry Roast the urad dal / Mina pappu on medium flame till you get a nice aroma and turns golden yellow. Dont fry on high flame as it might turn the dal into black before we notice.
- After the roasted dal cools down completely, blend them with jaggery pieces together to a coarse powder.
- In a big mixing bowl, transfer the blended powder. Add the cardamom powder into the bowl and slowly add the melted ghee into the mixture.
- Shape the flour into small round balls and enjoy.
So really mouth watering Sunnundalu
