Coconut Ladoo

Ingredients

2 cups Coconut (grated)/ Desiccated coconut
1 tbsp Ghee
5 tsp Cashew nuts (optional)
200 gm Condensed Milk (adjust sweetness accordingly)


Method

• In a non stick pan, add ghee and put the grated coconut/desiccated coconut.
• Stir fry for sometime (approx. 3 minutes) on medium heat, till the raw smell of the coconut is gone. Mix continuously so that it doesn't get burnt.
• Now add the condensed milk and chopped cashew nuts. Mix well.
• Cook till all the moisture from the mixture evaporates and it gets thickened.
• Remove from heat and transfer it into another bowl.
• Let it cool and place in a refrigerator for 1/2 an hour. By keeping in refrigerator, you will be able to make smooth balls very easily.
