Bandar Laddu / Tokkudu Laddu

Bandar Laddu, also known as Tokkudu Laddu, is a revered and iconic sweet delicacy originating from the coastal town of Machilipatnam in Andhra Pradesh, India. Named after the town’s former name, Bandar, these laddus have gained widespread popularity for their unique preparation method, distinctive taste, and cultural significance. The key ingredient in Bandar Laddu is boondi, tiny fried gram flour droplets that are carefully shaped into small, round balls. The preparation of boondi involves skillful craftsmanship, where the batter is poured through a perforated ladle into hot oil, resulting in the creation of miniature, golden-hued pearls. Once the boondi is prepared, it is gently coated with a sugary syrup that is infused with cardamom for a fragrant and aromatic touch. The syrup penetrates each boondi, creating a sweet and flavorful interior. The boondis are then molded into laddus, allowing them to retain their individual shapes while forming a cohesive and delightful sphere.
