Note for the dish :

1. You can use powdered sugar instead of grinding it.

2. You can use Cardamom powder too.

3. If the milk is little extra in the mixture, let it rest for a while before making balls. Because the rava will intake the milk and the mixture attains the cosistency.

4. If you feel sticky while rounding the ladoo, you can apply some ghee in your palm hand.
