1. Soak dhal for 1 - 2 hours and later drain water. Here toor dhal has been used. Can use a food processor to coarsely grind the dhals as it should not be ground to a fine paste. If using mixie too see to that it is not ground to a fine paste, just grind coarsely. Peel and grate beetroot and add all the ingredients(dhal, beetroot, salt, green chillies, ginger, hing, curry leaves) and mix well.

1. Melt Ghee in a wide pan, add the grated beetroot and fry it for 3 mins. Remove and keep aside.
2. Next add the finger millet flour and fry until the flour till they releases a lovely aroma.
3. Remove the seeds from dates and blend it to a fine paste. Mix all other ingredients, so that it is well combined. As the flour is still warm hold the flour firm to form balls/ laddu. Repeat the same until all the flour is used up to make laddu.

1. Make sure not to burn the flour while frying it in the ghee. Adding cardamom powder gives additional flavor you can skip if you don't like the taste of it.
2. Add 2 tbsp of milk if you find its hard to shape laddu. If you add too much of milk the laddu will not be firm and result in soggy laddu. You can alternately add melted jaggery syrup to make laddus
