GREEN GRAM LADDU 


Healthy and easy to make laddu.

My daughter's  favorite laddu,we can make this laddu for any special occasion, I made this laddu for Diwali . If it's rightly made and stored  in a clean and airtight container , it lasts long. 
We made this laddu only with jaggery or with karupatti(get from palm trees)-the Nature  gift for all of us . I'll give you the details of karupatti later( palm jaggery )
Let's do the preparation .
