don't Ambala sell a Ladoo mix or something? They do one for gulaab-jaamuns.

Assalaamu-alaikum <Mujaahid, what things do you know how to make?> I make delicious roast chicken, i make great samosas and Pakora's, i can make meat curries pretty good, i make delicious chopped Cucumber, Tomatoe, onion and corriander salad in plain yogurt! DELICIOUS!!! I make delicious chiken fillet burgers and nuggets and great home chips!!! Apart from that i can't do much else! Rice is my weakness. I just never get it right, usually burn it, if not burnt, then its all stuck together, kind of like a brick of out rice! However i once tried to make indian sweets, coconut ones, and it was aweful, it was basically bits of coconut floating in milk!

AWW, Aye-up man if you can make roasted chicken then why not rice ??? Rice is easy man, they have the recipie on the back of Basmati rice. By the way Bro mujahidd do you work in a restaraunt or do you all these dishes at home, I bet moms happy. This weekend I'm making sweet and sour chicken, with a dressing of sweet and sour sauce, on a fresh bed of salad, some garlic naan, topped with slight cheese and for desert its gonna be Hagendaz. salaams Hanif

Assalaamu-alaiakum <Mujahid, my husband is a qualified "mithai" maker.> Excellant! <He can make them all - from ladoo to ghulab jamun, barfi to jalebi> Brilliant, this is great news! <only problem is he comes from Pakistan> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! :( <if you can get over it, I can get some recipes from him for you> This is gona be hard!!! OK, does he support musharraf? As they are the ones i have a problem with. If he supports the muslims and the mujaahideen, and NOT the munaafiq, and if he can tell me how to make Ludoos, then he's my pal :)

slm My husband is a Muslim. He worships Allah. He strives to live his life by the Qur'an and the Sunnah. I think that's enough to make him your brother and to beg some recipes off him ;) wasalaam eleanor ;-D

Assalaamu-alaikum OK Eleanor, i'll accept him as my pal of his belief in Allah. And OK i would like the recipes from him, jazaakullah. HOWEVER, before you ask him, tell him that i said, that if i ever meet Musharraf, i will shave of his mustace and stick it on his eyebrows. If after that he dont dislike me, then he is an Allie in my quest for the Perfect Ludoo :)

The sweet meat you are referring to is most probably chumchum or rusgulla. I have yet to see edible white luddoos :) http://www.sparshbazaar.com/fc_ds_chamcham.html http://www.familynyou.com/channels/atpdindex.php3?idtitle=1539&channel_sub_id=32 You may also want to search for rusmalai.

Salaams aren't ludoos the yellowish tannish color with like little eeny teeny bits or green and red??? i don't think i've ever seen a white ludoo, i've seen something like that that's white and they also have it in pink, but i don't think it's called ludoo, i think it's called...i don't even know, but they are kind of moist...anyone know what i'm talking about??? so what are you talking about mujaahid? the desert they feed a billion times to the brides and grooms at mehndis and gatherings and stuff or that white stuff i was describing, which may be another form of ludoo? hehe ;-D and wow elanor! mithai maker, eh? man, i wonder how you can control yourself...well, wait, you can control yourself, desi sweets aren't all that great, VERY sugary i find it to be, but some are good ;) okee, Wasalaams

[slm] laddoos are too sweet for me!. The first time I tasted one, I took a big bite, my mistake, and felt my teeth fall out, LOL :D I like gulab jamun, but what I really really like is something you've probably never heard of "badam ki jali" and "Ashrafi". Those sweets are probably local to my area "charminar" only? who knows?. [wlm]

slm well mithai maker or not, the ladoos my husband makes are yellow-orange. So I'm not sure what Mujaahid was referring to. I know there are white ball shaped sweets too, but I don't think they are Ladoos. My husband very rarely makes sweets at all. We usually buy a little packet of finished sweets, because there is so much work involved in making them. And it's not worth it to go to all the trouble when at the end you have is a kilo all of the same sweets. Variety is nicer. My fav's are definitely Ghulab Jamun and Barfi. Any others don't really interest me all that much. I love Ras Malai and Sehvia though. He also makes mean Samosas and Pakora...mmmm... ;-D wasalaam eleanor

mmm ludoos!! :D my sister makes some really nice sujji ludoo, which are small and white like Bro Ludoo described... i think they might just be a fiji-indian variation of ludoo, but I'm sure there isn't just one type of ludoo, there are different ones like different varieties of bharfi. hmm the problem with living in a small town and away from parents is that you don't really get any indian sweets.   :):):)Hey I got an idea!  Lets have a Mithai Competition with yours truely as the judge :):):)   here's what you need to do to enter: [list] [*]make some indian sweets [*]send them to me [/list] simple eh?  I'll judge and award the winner with a prize of their choice.   wasalaam, Ahmed

The one I am most familar with is the orange coloured ladoo dispalyed in the centre of the plate. I think its called a 'Bundi Ladoo'. [center] [img]http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/2001/09/16/images/1316031e.jpg[/img][/center][color=black] Presented here are some traditional and new recipes for ladoos.

Melt the ghee in a vessel, add poha and stir for a few minutes. Add the milk, sugar and khoya. Allow it to simmer till it is very thick and leaves the side of the vessel. Mix the colour and remove from heat. Cool and divide into 15 balls. Flatten each ball of the covering and put the filling in the centre and roll into a ladoo. Decorate with pieces of pistachio.
