Ingredients Serving: 10

Whole wheat Flour 3 cups
Pure desi ghee 2 cups
Grated jaggery 2 cups
Edible gum 3/4 cup
Almonds 1 cup
Cashews 1/2 cup
Raisins 1 cup
Melon seeds 1 cup
Dry ginger powder 3/4 cup
Poppy seeds 1 tbsp
Nutmeg powder 1 tesp
Cardamom powder 1 tesp

Instructions

Crush edible gum in tiny pieces in a mortar and dry it in bright sunshine for 2 to 3 hours.
Dry roast poppy seeds and make coarse powder.
Chop almonds and cashews.
Heat ghee in a big heavy bottomed wok.
Add whole wheat flour and roast on medium flame till golden pink or nice roasted aroma raises up. Here you need a lot of patience as it takes around 40 to 45 minutes and take care that flour doesn't stick to bottom of wok.
Now add chopped almonds and cashews.
Add raisins and ginger powder.
Roast further for 3-4 minutes.
Add melon seeds and crushed and dried edible gum. Keep stirring.
Melon seeds would fluff up instantly ,also gum would fluff up like popcorns.
Add jaggery powder and mix well till jaggery dissolves.
Switch off the flame and continue to stir for further five minutes to prevent burning flour at bottom.
Here we hadn't roasted dry fruits separately as they would get cooked in heat of roasting flour.
Keep in mind that this roasted flour is too hot that it will get more dark even after removing from heat.
Let it cool down to bearable hot to bind laddoos with hands.
Bind whole mix into laddoos.
These stays good for months.
