Moong Laddoo

Moong laddoo is a delightful Indian sweet treat that's made from moong dal (split yellow lentils). The lentils are roasted to a golden hue and then ground into a fine powder. This powder is combined with ghee (clarified butter) and sugar to create a mixture that's molded into small, round laddoos or balls. These laddoos are often infused with fragrant cardamom and sometimes garnished with chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios. Moong laddoos have a rich, nutty flavor and a crumbly yet slightly firm texture that makes them a favorite during festivals and celebrations in India.
