To make this laddu, you will need the following ingredients;
Dry Coconut halves :
I’ve used the dry coconut halves (1 full) and grated them at home. However dessicated coconut or freshly grated coconut also works well for this recipe.
Rock Sugar/ Mishri: I’ve used Rock Sugar or Mishri by powdering it in mixer jar. If it’s not easily available you may use regular granulated sugar or powdered sugar or jaggery also.
Ghee/Clarified butter: To roast dry nuts and desiccated coconut. You can also use an equal amount of coconut oil.
Milk: I preferably use full-fat milk. However you may use the milk of youe choice.
Nuts: My choice depends upon whatever is available at home. So it could be cashews, almonds, pistachios, Raisins, Melon seeds, Poppy seeds, Sesame seeds and dried Rose petals.
Cardamom powder: A must have to flavor these ladoos.
