Bring it to boil. Then add sugar. Put it in medium heat to make the sugar syrup.
(Care should be taken that the sugar syrup is not over done. Using a spoon take few drops of sugar syrup, when you pour it from the spoon the last drop of the syrup should form a thin continuous line. If it doesn't keep it for boiling for another 2 minutes.)
Heat oil in a pan. Take 'Boondi laddle' and hold the handle on your left hand
and take a spoon full of dough on your right hand.
Hold it on the hot oil, now pour the dough on the 'boondi laddle' and rub it
very fast through the holes with the bottom of the spoon. The disc must be held close to the pan.
The batter must fed quickly into the oil. Cook 'boondi' till they become fine gold colour.
Remove and put them in a big vessel and then add the sugar syrup, raisins,
fried cashews , cloves and powdered elaichi.
Mix well . Make it into a ball.
Your Boondi laddu is ready to taste.
