Haldi ke ladoo — fresh turmeric, wheat flour, gond, dry fruits, and sugar roasted in ghee into nourishing winter ladoos. A traditional Ayurvedic-style sweet.

Ingredients

Main

  • 250 g fresh raw turmeric (kacchi haldi), grated
  • 1 cup wheat flour
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup mixed dry fruits (almonds, pistachios, cashews, walnuts), chopped
  • ¼ cup edible gum (gond), fried and crushed
  • 2 tbsp melon seeds (magaz)
  • ½ cup desi ghee (or as needed)

Instructions

  1. Roast. Fry gond in ghee; crush. Roast wheat flour and turmeric in ghee until aromatic.
  2. Combine. Mix in sugar, nuts, gond, and seeds. Shape into ladoos while warm.

Pro tip: Wear gloves when grating fresh turmeric and fry gond until it puffs — that's when it digest well.

The Story Behind This Dish

Turmeric ladoos are winter and wedding-tradition fare in many North Indian families — food as medicine shared when cold weather and festivals arrive together.
