    Churma Ladoo | No Fry Churma Ladoo Recipe | Churma na Ladva

    Churma Ladoo is a traditional recipe from the regions of Rajasthan and Gujarat in India. It is delicious and is an energy booster. These Churma Na Ladva are made for the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi in Gujarat. My recipe is a no-fry version, as it becomes even more nutritious.

    Churma Ladoo

    This recipe is very traditional and prepared in every household on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi. We enjoy these ladva with val nu shaak and Gujarati Dal. As I always say, food brings me closer to my roots. And I want Inaaya to grow up knowing Indian Food and her roots. What better way to introduce her to these beautiful recipes, than the festivities.

    What are Churma Na Ladoo?

    Churma Na Ladoo is ladoos made from Whole Wheat Flour, Semolina, and Ghee, Sweetened with Jaggery with beautiful nutty flavors from almonds and coconut, spiced with cardamom, and nutmeg. The wholewheat flour is nicely massaged with ghee, and a tight dough is prepared, and rested for 15-20 minutes, for the gluten to build. This makes the ladoos easily digestible. Churma ladoos in Rajasthan are enjoyed with Dal Bati, and Gatta ni Sabji.

    Why a No Fry Recipe instead of the Traditional Fried Recipe?

    It is totally up to you, how you want to make the Churma Ladoos. I like to avoid deep frying as much as possible in my home and keep my family away from deep-fried foods. The Churma Ladoos feel much lighter to consume when not deep-fried. If you are new to the recipe of Churma Na Ladoo, then you might not know this. We make a tight whole wheat flour dough and make muthias. These muthias are traditionally deep-fried in Ghee or Oil. Then Crushed into a fine powder, and then we proceed to spice and sweeten them.

    The No fry version is easy, quick and it also doesn't need your constant attention. You make the muthias and air fry them or bake them. In the meanwhile, you can prep the other ingredients you will need to make the Churma Ladoos.

    Are Churma Ladoos Vegan and Gluten-Free?

    These ladva are not vegan or gluten-free. If I were to guess, you can make this vegan using coconut oil, or vegan butter. Whole Wheat flour contains Gluten, so there is no way to make these ladoos Gluten-free.

    Some Recipes from the Blog You May Like

      Ingredients to Make Churma Ladoo

      • Bhakri Flour - I like to use Bhakri Flour as this is pounded little coarse than the whole wheat flour we usually use. If you don't have Bhakri Flour, you can add a little bit of besan and semolina to the whole wheat flour to prepare the ladva
      • Semolina - I like to use the coarse roasted semolina for the recipe. You can roast your semolina really quickly on the stove on a medium low flame until it starts to smell nutty. The roasting helps semolina to add the beautiful nutty flavors and beautiful coarse texture to the Churma ladoo.
      • Ghee - A quintessential ingredient for making these ladoos. One advice, be generous in using ghee to make these ladva. They taste delicious because of this golden goodness. Use melted ghee for accurate measurements.
      • Warm Water - We will knead the dough using warm water. We knead a very tight dough using minimal water in this recipe. Warm water helps the dough to absorb the protein from the gluten faster. This will make the dough pliable and easy to knead.
      • Nuts - I personally like to add almonds and coconut to these ladoos. But you can also add cashews, pistachios and raisins, or any other nuts of your choice.
      • Salt - The smallest pinch of salt takes these ladoos to the next level.
      • Cardamom - What is an Indian Sweet without Cardamom? Deseed the Green Cardamom and freshly pound it and add it to the churma. The hidden sweet notes of cardamom is what makes all the Indian desserts to die for.
      • Nutmeg - To be honest, not everybody likes the taste of nutmeg. So if you don't like it or don't have it just skip it. I like to add nutemg for it is mild sweet, earthy and gives a slightest kick.
      • Jaggery - I use Kolhapuri Jaggery to add to these ladoos. We heat ghee and add jaggery to it. Cook it until it bubbles. And then add this mixture to the Churma. The Kolhapuri Jaggery is lighter in color, so when heated, it becomes into this beautiful caramel color, giving your ladoos the most beautiful rustic color.
      • White Poppy Seeds - We use lightly roasted white poppy seeds to coat these ladoos. It gives the ladoos look very beautiful, as if coated in tiny pearls and gives a nice crunch when you take a bite.

      Expert Tips to Make Churma Ladoo

      Churma Ladoos can be a little daunting but they are easy to make. They are absolutely worth all the effort. They are so delicious, that one can just not stop eating them.

      • Use melted ghee for this recipe.
      • You will feel like you are using a lot of ghee, but ghee is used in this recipe to bind these ladoos, and they also help with digestion.
      • In the end, when you start making ladoos, be sure to have melted ghee ready with you. Add little by little, to bring the churma together and make ladoos.
      • If you don't like almonds you can use cashews or walnuts too.
      • If you don't like the crunch in the ladoos, you can add half cup almond flour.
      • If you don't have an airfryer, you can make roast the muthia on the stove. I like to use appe/paniyaram pan. Add ghee and add cook the muthias for about 7-10 mins or 4-5 mins on each side on slow flame.
      • You can also shallow fry the muthia. In a frying pan add 2 cups of ghee. Let it heat up. Fry the muthias until golden brown.

          Hi Amita,

          My mom's mom uses icing sugar (ground sugar) to make the ladoos. For 2 Cups of Coarse Wheat Flour, she uses 1 Cup of Icing sugar. Usually, we melt jaggery in ghee, but you can skip it if you are using icing sugar. However, if you decide to use castor sugar, you will have to melt it with ghee and make a single taar chasni. You can add the icing sugar to the churma mix right after adding the warm ghee.
          I hope this helps.

          Regards,
          Aayushi

      • 📌Air Fried Idlis📌

So many of you requested me to show you how I make air fried crispy idlis. Here’s how. But before that, my biggest tip to make these idlis is to use leftover idlis. 

I am using 6 leftover idlis, and for it I used 1 Tbsp oil. Lay them in a single layer in the air fryer, this will help them crisp up evenly. 

1. Cut the leftover idlis into equal sized wedges. 
2. Add them to a mixing bowl and add oil. Mix it with your hands. 
3. Preheat the Air Fryer on Roast setting for 400F for 1 minute.
4. Air fry the idlis in 2 batches, Add the idlis in a single layer and roast them at 400F for 12 mins. Give it a shake at 6 mins mark to make sure idlis crisp evenly.

      • Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story. 

I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side. 

I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU. 

So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten  better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

      • Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious! 

📌Recipe📌

🌱 For the Curry Base

• 1 Tbsp Oil
• 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
• 2 Green Cardamoms
• 1 Bay Leaf
• 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
• 1 Dried Red Chili
• 1 Medium Onion Sliced
• 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
• 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
• 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
• 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
• 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 8-10 Cashews

For The Curry

• 2 Tbsp Butter
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder 
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
• 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
• 1 Tsp Garam Masala
• 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
• Adjust Salt if needed

📌 step by step📌

1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown. 
3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften. 
4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base. 
5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency. 
6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt. 
7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft.

      • Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again. 

“You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“ 

If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.

      Idli podi has many names, and many versions. It is very versatile to play around with the ingredients! I have always loved this version so much! It is simple, made with chana dal, urad dal, dried red chilies, hing and shredded coconut. Detailed recipe is link in my bio. Direct link here

      📌Air Fried Idlis📌

      So many of you requested me to show you how I make air fried crispy idlis. Here’s how. But before that, my biggest tip to make these idlis is to use leftover idlis.

      I am using 6 leftover idlis, and for it I used 1 Tbsp oil. Lay them in a single layer in the air fryer, this will help them crisp up evenly.

      1. Cut the leftover idlis into equal sized wedges.
      2. Add them to a mixing bowl and add oil. Mix it with your hands.
      3. Preheat the Air Fryer on Roast setting for 400F for 1 minute.
      4. Air fry the idlis in 2 batches, Add the idlis in a single layer and roast them at 400F for 12 mins. Give it a shake at 6 mins mark to make sure idlis crisp evenly.

      Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story.

      I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side.

      I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU.

      So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

      Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious!

      📌Recipe📌

      🌱 For the Curry Base

      • 1 Tbsp Oil
      • 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
      • 2 Green Cardamoms
      • 1 Bay Leaf
      • 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
      • 1 Dried Red Chili
      • 1 Medium Onion Sliced
      • 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
      • 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
      • 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
      • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
      • 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
      • 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
      • 1 Tsp Salt
      • 8-10 Cashews

      For The Curry

      • 2 Tbsp Butter
      • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder
      • 1 Tsp Salt
      • 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
      • 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
      • 1 Tsp Garam Masala
      • 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
      • Adjust Salt if needed

      📌 step by step📌

      1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown.
      3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften.
      4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base.
      5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency.
      6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt.
      7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft.
      8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
      9. Serve hot!
