Paan gives a perfect ending to our meal. Indians’ love affair with paan has been passed down generations after generations, inventing new varieties along the way. There’s a paan for every palate. In fact, paan is a popular food item during religious events and festivals; some people also add it to the puja bhog thali. For Diwali festivities, laddoo made with paan is an excellent idea to whet your family’s cravings for paan and sweets, all at the same time.
Fresh betel leaves, along with desiccated coconut and condensed milk, are used to make this unique laddoo. The recipe video posted on YouTube channel ‘Beyond Dining Co By Chef Raji’ uses two kinds of paan leaves – maghai paan and regular paan. But you can choose any paan leaves of your choice, or make the dish with just one variety.
