Grease the rolling board with some ghee or sprinkle some flour over it and place the dough ball over it. Roll it into parantha with about 8-10 inch circumference.

Preheat tawa and spread some ghee over it. Place the rolled parantha over it and roast until it gets slightly brown from beneath. Now flip the side and roast from other side as well. Spread some ghee over this side of the parantha. Flip the parantha and spread some ghee over this side as well. Roast until parantha gets brown-golden spots on both sides and then take it off flame and place it in a bowl or plate. Allow it to get bit frigid.

When parantha gets frigid, mash it finely with your hands. Strain the churma with a sieve. Place 2-3 tbsp ghee in a pan and allow it to melt. Add churma into it and roast on medium flame until it changes in color and releases good aroma. Take out roasted churma in a plate.

  •     After jaggery is melted completed, add churma into it and mix well. Cook it for few minutes. With help of thumb and index finger check whether mixture sticks , ladoos can be binded. If mixture is not cooked aptly then ladoos remain wet and will not remain in their shape. If mixture is overcooked than ladoos get stiff and too hard.
