Moong dal ladoo



This is the very first dish I tried making by myself. Start of my cooking journey during schooldays :D. My mom used to make it so often and I am big fan of this ladoo. So I got tempted and tried by myself failed few times later made it with help of my mom. In our home this is an integral part of Krishna Jeyanthi sweets. However after marriage I could not make it so often since my hubby is not a big fan of the moong dal taste :( . Recently got a chance to make it for a friends get to gather so I clicked the pics and here comes the recipe :) .
