Grinding jaggery with moong flour, releases its moisture and makes it easier to shape the ladoos
Always warm the ghee mixture before mixing with the ladoo mixture. Warm ghee helps to shape the ladoos
Split the ladoo mixture into portions and add ghee in one portion at a time so that other portions are not getting dried out.
