Ensure the sugar syrup reaches the correct 1-string consistency for the laddus to hold shape.
How do I know when the sugar syrup is ready?
The syrup is ready when it reaches a 1-string consistency, meaning a single thread forms when you pinch a drop between your fingers.
Can I use other nuts?
Yes, you can substitute cashews with almonds or pistachios if preferred.
What if my mixture is too dry to shape?
If the mixture is too dry, add a little more melted ghee to help bind the laddus.
