How to Make Policha Ladoo and Modaks

Hello Foodies,

These healthy desserts/snacks made with whole wheat flatbread, jaggery(gul), ghee (clarified butter), and delicious Tutti-Frutti. When I was a kid, my mom used to pack these goodies into my snack box. It is very easy to make and has only 4 ingredients in its making. I learned this recipe from my Aai(Mother).

This is my staple as I will mostly have chapati dough in hand so will make these ladoos easily. This is one of my favorites too. This is the best way to get energized. If you have a sweet tooth then this is the best way to eat chapati and have some energy forms ghee and jaggery. Being a Maharashtrian, our meal doesn’t complete without chapati and varan bhat. Even for parties or special get together, either our menu is rice-based or roti based or sometimes both.

My Take:

I used oil-free phulkas made in tawa for this recipe.
Instead of ghee, you can use 2 tbsp milk too.
You can add roasted desiccated coconut and nuts too along with nutsTutti Frutti.
You can use leftover chapatis or can make fresh chapati as I did.
It stays good for 2-3 days at room temperature and 5-6 days in the refrigerator.
You can replace jaggery with cane sugar, brown sugar, or regular sugar too(If you are using white sugar then reduce it a little).
To make a vegan version just replace ghee by adding coconut oil or coconut milk.
