Pan is prepared using betel leaf and Areca Nut and Chuna./Slaked lime. Slaked lime is filled with calcium.
We had some betel leaves left after the function of our daughter in law's Seemantha.
The leaves were so fresh and I did not want to throw them or leave them to dry.
So thought of doing this Pan Laddu and it came out very well.
The procedure is very simple.
Let us see the recipe.
First we need to wash and dry the betel leaves nicely. It should be completely dry.
Then it should be dry roasted after cutting into small pieces.
Then add some Supari /Areca nuts. Fry nicely and take it out to a plate. Add a pinch of Chuna.
Let it cool. Add 10 to 15 Almonds and dry grind into powder. Keep it aside.
Now take some 250 gr dates and take out the seeds.
Dry grind the dates into powder. Use soft dates. It should not turn as liquid but should have some moisture in it.
Mix dry ground betel mixture and ground dates.
Take a small amount of the mixture and make small goose berry size laddu.
