Diwali is almost here and we are all preparing a whle lot of sweets enthusiastically for family and friends. I made Coconut Ladoos yesterday, which were liked by all who had them.
Sharing the recipe with you too and hope you'll try it out over the next few days.
COCONUT LADOOS
Ingredients:
1 Coconut removed from the shell, peeled and scraped
1 cup or katori of sugar
1/2 litre full cream or regular milk
8 to 10 cardamoms peeled and powdered
1 pinch red food colour ( optional)
Procedure:
Put milk, scraped coconut and cardamom powder in a pan and cook on medium flame till the milk evaporates completely and you have a soft coconut mixture. It should take about 15 to 20 minutes . Next empty out the coconut mixture in a thick kadai or pan, add sugar and cook on low flame stirring constantly, for 10 to 15 minutes till the mixture is dry and slightly sticky. In case you wish to give the ladoos a lightpink colour, just add a speck/pinch of red cooking colour in powder. Mix well so the colour is uniformly spread and the mixture has a light pink colour. Turn off flame. Allow the mixture to cool .when still luke warm, spread a little pure ghee on your palm, take a small portion of the mixture , press and form into ladoos.
