Cooking tips to make perfect Amla Laddu-
- Do not over-roast Amla; over-roasting it reduces its Vitamin C.
- Just melt the jaggery, do not boil it. Boiling makes the jaggery hard and the laddus become dry.
- While making laddus, the mixture should be hot but not burning.
- Too much ghee makes laddus sticky and cannot be stored.
