Coconut Ladoo Recipe

Makes  :  25 ladoos

Ingredients

• Condensed milk  -  1 tin(I used Nestle milkmaid 395 g tin)
• Dessicated coconut  -  5 cups

Method

1. Out of the 5 cups of coconut, keep aside 1 cup of coconut in a plate.
2. Heat a non-stick pan, add the condensed milk and the remaining 4 cups of coconut.
3. Keep stirring the mixture continuously in low flame.
4. Once the mixture becomes a mass and doesn't stick to the pan, switch off the flame. This takes roughly about 4 to 5 minutes.
5. Once the mixture is warm, make balls out of this and roll it in the remaining 1 cup coconut.
6. When refrigerated, this stays good for 2 to 3 days.

Notes

• Dessicated coconut works fresh for this recipe. If using fresh coconut, dry roast it a bit to remove the moisture without changing color.
• Use a non-stick pan for best results.
• While rolling the balls, you may use little ghee to grease your hands if it's too sticky to roll. I didn't require ghee as it was easy to roll.
