Ingredients
- 1¼ cup raw peanuts
- ¾ cup powdered jaggery
Instructions
- First, dry roast the raw peanuts by heating a thick bottomed pan on low to medium flame until the peanuts become crunchy and the outer skin starts to come out.
- Keep stirring in between to roast the peanuts completely.
- Make sure the peanuts should be roasted very well.
- Once roasted, let the peanuts cool off completely at room temperature.
- Then gently rub the skin of roasted peanuts. So that their skin peels off.
- In a grinder jar, add the roasted peanuts.
- Give a quick grind and make a slightly coarse powder.
- Take out the 2 tablespoons of coarse powder and keep it aside.
- Now grind again as fine as possible.
- Add powdered jaggery and grind it again.
- Now scrap all the sides of the mixture and add 2 tablespoons coarse mixture.
- Mix everything well.
- Take the ladoo mixture onto a plate or tray.
- Apply little ghee to your palms and take a small portion of the mixture.
- Now start making round lemon size ladoo balls.
- Make ladoos with the rest of the mixture.
- Peanut ladoo with jaggery is now ready.
- Store it in air-tight container once done.
Notes
- Remember, the amount of jaggery is should always be half the number of peanuts.
- If the mixture binds easily together then it means that the mixture is ready to shape the ladoos.
- Don’t grind peanuts in one turn. Make sure, grind in turns for a few seconds every time and check-in between. Else, too much grinding will make the peanuts sticky.
- Ghee gives a nice fragrance to the ladoo. If the mixture looks dry and then add 1-2 tablespoons of ghee. As the oil released after grinding peanuts is enough to bind the ladoos, so ghee is optional.
- Additionally, you can add dry fruits along with peanuts to make ladoo more nutritious.
