1. Heat a pan, dry roast black gram until they are slightly golden brown in color. Allow them to cool and grind them in a mixer grinder to a coarse powder.
2. Take a mixing bowel, add coarsely ground powder and powdered jaggery, mix well together thoroughly.
3. Now add hot ghee to this and mix them with a spoon to make sure ghee is well coated all over the flour. While it is still warm, make a lemon sized ball out of this mixture and store it in an airtight container. Simple and yummy black gram laddu is ready.
