bandar laddu

Bandar Laddu is a popular Andhra sweet from Machilipatnam. It is made with Besan Chakli pounded with jaggery and made into ladoos.

For the last of the Traditional Indian Sweets, I decided on this ladoo as this was on my list for a long time and never was the right time to make it. I had a few other dishes, however for lack of time I had to ditch those.

Still, making this laddu took time and hence this delayed post. I referred this and went ahead making this ladoo.
