Maaladu | Roasted Gram Laddu
Now that Janmashtami is approaching fast most of you must be busy preparing goodies for Sri Krishna and of course family & friends.  As I mentioned in my Janmashtami Recipes Collection post we normally do fasting on Krishna Jayanthi and it's full day fasting with eating only after mid night or some time consume only fruits. But to share with friends, family or neighbor or for Naivedyam we prepare sweets and snacks in my house coconut laddu, murukku, singhara burfi or laddo is made.

I prepared this easy and quick maaladu or roasted gram (chana dal)  ladoo to share with you all and also to celebrate happy occasion of our (DH) nephew graduation, it's one of the happiest moment.

If you have last minute naivedyam to prepare or want to try something new then maaladu/putnala pappula ladoo is one of best option it's made with only few ingredients with minimal cooking too.  If you crave for besan laddu but don't want to prepare that as it's takes little time or this dalia ladoo is good alternative.
