Til Gur Ladoos or Sesame Seed Balls are a winter favourite across the country. With Makar Sankranti round the corner, this yum traditional dish is just what you need. Did you know that just a handful of sesame seeds contains as much calcium as a glass of milk? Gur is extremely rich in iron and much healthier than sugar. So next time someone stops you from picking up a til gur ladoo, you can tell them you're eating a nutritious and healthy snack.
