Foxtail Millet Sesame Laddoos

Wednesday, April 2, 2014

Once i started experimenting with foxtail millet, i realized that they are versatile and you can dish out many variety foods with them from starters to sweets. One of my recent trial with foxtail millet is this incredible,nutty sesame laddoos. Trust me, these balls are seriously addictive, both foxtail millet and sesame together works out wonder and these balls are definitely guilt free snacks to enjoy anytime of the day.Roasted sesame seeds and roasted millet when grounded together with jaggery,makes these cuties,dont even need any ghee or milk to shape them.

A nutritious laddoos aka balls to munch whenever you feel like having something sweet, a pect balls to satisfy your sweet tooth as well. These guilt free vegan balls takes hardly less than 20minutes to get ready and believe me they will get vanished very much quickly too.Sending to Paris Only Food for Pregnancy.


1/2cup Foxtail millet
1cup White sesame seeds
3/4cup Grated jaggery

Dry roast the foxtail millet until a nice aroma comes from,keep aside and let it cool completely.

Continue the same process with sesame seeds, dry roast it and let it cool.

Take the roasted foxtail millet, roasted sesame seeds and jaggery in a mixie jar, grind until everything turns as smooth powder.

Transfer it to a plate,make out balls from it, the oil from the sesame seeds itself is enough to roll the balls.

Store it in an air tightened box.

Stays pect for a week.

Tomorrow is Krishna Jayanthi, hope all are getting ready for the celebration. Even am making few simple sweets and savouries for this festival.If you dont have any time or busy with other stuffs but still you want to make sweets for the celebration you can make this easy,quick,delicious and healthy laddoos with red rice flakes. This sweet takes hardly less than 10 minutes to get ready, actually you can make them with white rice flakes, since am an healthnut i used organic red rice flakes which my mom got me from India before few months back.

Also i prepared this laddoos completely with ghee and they were just mindblowing, if you dont like or dont want to use ghee you can use milk to make this balls. Seriously i love this kind of easy breezy sweets for celebrations and if you conserve them well in an air tightened box, they can stay pect for more than three days.
