Nutritious and yummy coconut-til Laddu!

Posted on: 26/Oct/2019 10:19:48 AM
The laddus (sweet balls) made from coconut and til (sesame seeds) are the right answers if you have a craving for sweet or, in other words, having a sweet tooth.

This sweet item is made with only 3 ingredients - coconut (grated), sesame seeds, and dates.

Note that dates are used replacing sugar! This will cut off any worries on the extra calories!

Ingredients
  • White sesame seeds - 2 cups
  • Chopped dates - one-and-a-half cup
  • Dry grated coconut - 1 cup
The recipe
  • Finely chop de-seeded dates.
  • Dry roast sesame in a wok for around 1-2 minutes on medium flame until it light golden.
  • Keep the sesame seeds aside to cool.
  • Add coconut to the wok. Stir well.
  • Lightly grind the cooled sesame in a dry grinder more for a few seconds. Make sure you don`t grind it to fine.
  • Take the ground sesame seeds in a bowl. Add chopped dates and coconut powder and mix well.
  • Take a small amount of mixture and roll it in hand to form a ball or laddu. You can roll the laddu in some coconut powder to add texture.
