These scrumptious carrot coconut laddu needs only few ingredients and takes only 30 minutes. A perfect dish to make at the last minute and also everyone will love it. Or if you’re planning for a big heavy dinner, this is perfect to make as a simple dessert, that just melts in the mouth. I have made this recipe just using the recipe of coconut laddu and gajar ka halwa. But I was very sure that it is going to taste great. I know any experiment made with carrot, coconut and condensed milk taste great. It is a great way to feed the kids with veggies. It looks gorgeous too, isn't it?
Ingredients:
- Carrots - 1 and half cup (grated)
- Condensed milk - 1 cup
- Ghee - 1 tsp
- Cardamom powder - 1 tsp
- Almonds / cashew nuts - chopped - 1 tsp
- Desiccated coconut - 1/2 cup for rolling
Process
1. Wash, peel and grate carrots. In a pan add ghee and add the grated carrots. Saute on medium heat for 5-8 minutes until carrots are little soft and it will ooze out some water and get dried.
2. Add coconut and toast for a minute. Then add condensed milk and mix well. cook on low flame until the mixture gets thick and starts to roll like a ball. It will take around 8-10 minutes.
3. Add chopped nuts and remove from the flame. Cool the mixture but dont make it too cold. Cool it little so that you can make the laddus by hand.
4. Apply ghee on your palm and make round balls out of the mixture. Then roll these balls in the desiccated coconut.
Note - You can also store them in airtight container for 4-5 days in the refrigerator.
