Ram-laddu
Ram Laddu sounds like a sweet dish but actually it is one of the famous savory street food and is exclusive delicacy of Delhi-NCR region. Ram Laddus are scrumptiously delicious chaat and if you go in any part of NCR regions you find lots of vendors selling these Laddus.It is made of Split Chick pea(Chana Dal) and split Moong Dal together. Dense ground Chana Dal gives it the round shape hence it is known as "Ram Laddu". Traditionally, it is served with sour Coriander Chutney and grated Reddish but you can add yoghurt and sweet Sonth Chutney to it to enhance the flavor profile of the dish. Grated Reddish is used for garnishing. In this recipe I used grated carrot, yoghurt as well.You can relish this fried snack at Tea time.
