**Mumbai, India:** A certified nutritionist, Rachna Mohan, has taken the internet by storm with a heartwarming Instagram Reel featuring her mother’s debut – a simple yet effective recipe for healthy laddoos. The video, titled “Meri maa ki debut reel” (My mother’s debut reel), has amassed over 4.5 million views since being posted three weeks ago.
The recipe, billed as “Grandma’s weight loss recipe without sacrificing sweets,” involves dry-roasting a blend of ajwain (carom seeds), saunf (fennel seeds), pumpkin seeds, black pepper, cashews, almonds, and fox nuts. This mixture is then ground into a fine powder and mixed with ghee, besan, and chana flour before being shaped into ladoos.
“One laddoo every day, whether you’re grappling with infections, joint pains, digestion issues, studying, or just had a baby,” Mohan captioned the video, emphasizing its versatility.
The internet has been buzzing with inquiries about the recipe, with users asking for ingredient ratios and inquiring about its suitability for diabetics. While many users praised the video and lauded the mother-daughter duo, some expressed skepticism about the laddoos’ weight loss potential, citing their high calorie and ghee content.
“Wow…moms are amazing,” one user wrote. “Could you please ask Auntie to share some recipes for weight gain for boys? Thank you.”
However, another user commented, “Reason for increased cholesterol, high blood pressure, triglycerides, High sugar too. The only benefit is the high fibre from the lentils.”
Whether these healthy laddoos live up to their weight loss claims remains debatable, but one thing is clear: the internet is captivated by the mother-daughter duo’s heartwarming video and the promise of a healthier twist on a beloved Indian sweet.
