We are lucky because the Indian landscape makes available to us a wealth of healthy grains with immeasurable benefits. Most of these grains and their flours are so versatile that they can be used to make everything from khichdis to ladoos. Here is a delicious ragi ladoo that proves our point.

A nutrient-dense and irresistibly tasty treat laced with cardamom, these ladoos help build your iron and vitamin B complex reserves. When you feel like snacking, grab two of these power-packed ladoos to shoo away your hunger.

Compared to other sweets which are loaded with sugar and / or refined maida, this healthy recipe for pregnancy can be a wise pick. A mum-to-be can benefit from the calcium nachni has in bountiful amounts. Each ladoo provides 71.3 mg of calcium.

Ragi flour is also enriched with fiber as compared to maida. Fiber is a key nutrient to keep your digestive system healthy. But remember these ragi laddus also have some amount of sugar. Hence do not include them on a daily basis. Make them a part of your diet occasionally.

Tips for nachni ladoos. 1. Saute ragi flour only on slow flame, else it might burn quickly. 2. Add sugar only after removing from flame, else it might harden. 3. You can store them at room temperature in an air-tight container for 4 to 5 days. They stay fresh for upto 10 days in the fridge.

An outstanding, fantastic and irresistible sweet. I loved it too much as it is a unique variation of ladoo. The only thing is that it requires a lot of ghee .

Excellently balanced flavors... the aroma that filled my kitchen while making it was unbelievable... the roasted nachni flour and the poppy seeds add a great crunch to the ladoos... was quick to make and well to finish too...
