Coconut Ladoos are my favorite! They go so well in the evening snacks. Love feast is incomplete without sweet. Also, sweet makes the menu complete. And for those who are lovers of sweet, they cannot resist these ladoos. They are ideal to offer to Lord on any auspicious occasion.
There are so many ways to make coconut ladoos like with dry coconut, wet coconut, adding semolina etc. In this recipe I will show easy way of making the ladoos with wet coconut. Many times wet coconut remains in the fridge, especially after visiting temple, without proper utility. Making these ladoos out of the wet coconut is an easy way to use it.
Ingredients:
- One full coconut - break and remove the water
- Sugar - 3 cups
- Cardamom power - 1/2 teaspoon
- Sweetened condensed milk - 2 tablespoon

Procedure:
- Remove coconut from its hard shell and run it a couple of times in the blender or mixer. Grate it finer as it is done for coconut chutney.
- Take a non-stick pan and put the grated coconut in it and turn on the stove on medium heat.
- Keep roasting the grated coconut in the pan till the water dries out and the coconut appears with brownish tinge.
- Now add the sugar and let it melt completely in the heat. Again roast in the same way till water in the sugar goes away and the mixture gets good consistency.
- Add cardamom powder and sweetened condensed milk. Stir it well for 2 minutes and switch off the stove. Let it cool for 5 minutes. They should be warm enough to give them shape.
- Grease your hand with ghee or oil and make laddos of the mixture. Make them into balls of uniform size and let them cool to room temperature. Store them in air-tight box.
Time: 30 minutes
Yields: 15 to 18 ladoos
Note: When the same mixture is fried for long time, it increases its consistency, making it thick and hard. It can be spread over a greased plate and cut into barfis. So the procedure is same for coconut barfi as well!
Offer to Lord and have these delicious ladoos anytime!
