easy and quick festive time ladoos using makhana (foxnuts), coconut and flavored with rose.
Ingredients
- Foxnut (makhana) 3.5 cup
- Coconut (grated) 2/3 cup
- Cashew 1/3 cup
- Almond 1/3 cup
- Rose petals (dry) 2 tbsp
- Rose essence 1/2 tsp
- Sugar 3/4 cup
- Water 1/4 cup
- Ghee 3-4 tsp
Instructions
- In a pan dry roast the foxnuts / puffed lotus seed / makhana till perfectly crisp over low-medium heat.
- Transfer to a plate and allow to cool a bit.
- Meanwhile, take the grated coconut in the pan and fry for 1-2 minutes.
- Take out the coconut to a plate and add the nuts to the same pan.
- Dry roast them and transfer to the plate.
- Make a coarse powder of all the roasted makhana in a blender first and then the roasted nuts.
- Keep these powders in a plate.
- Now take sugar and water in the same pan and make a syrup ( no need of any string consistency in the syrup, just check for the sugar to be melted well).
- Turn off heat.
- Add rose essence along with the coarse powders, coconut, the roughly chopped dry rose petals and ghee.
- Mix everything well using a spatula and keep aside to cool a bit.
- When the mixture is still warm, start making the ladoos.
- Take 1-2 tbsp of mixture in palm and gather to make small ball shape (around 2 inch dia). Keep in a plate.
- Repeat the above process to make ladoos with remaining mixture.
- Serve or keep in air-tight container for later use !
Notes:
Along with rose essence, few pinch of cardamom powder can be added in these ladoos. Adjust the sweetness as desired. Pick any other dry fruits like pistachio, raisins, walnuts etc. Desiccated coconut can be used. In that case, add these directly to the mixture without frying.
