Besan ladoo (Source: nishamadhulika.com)
Besan ladoo is an all-time favourite in any puja season. So, you can make it in Navratri as well. All we need is besan, ghee and sugar. Instead of struggling for hours roasting them in kadai, you can also make them in microwave. It will be much quicker.
Ingredients
250 grams Besan (2 cup)
200 grams ghee (1 cup)
250 grams powdered sugar
6-7 green cardamom
15-20 cashew nuts or almonds (chopped in small pieces)

Put it back in microwave for two more minutes. Take out the bowl again and stir well.
Place the bowl for third time and microwave for 1 more minute. Stir the gram flour after taking it out.
Again place the bowl for fourth time and microwave for 1 more minute. Take out the bowl and stir the gram flour nicely with help of a spoon.
Gram flour is now roasted completely; it has turned light brown in color.
Let the mix cool down before adding dugar.
Once it cools down, add sugar, cardamom powder and chopped dry fruits into it.
