    Peanut ladoo is made with peanuts and jaggery as main ingredients.It is very easy to make, tastes delicious and healthy too.This can be packed for kids snackbox too. As its soft and has a melt in the mouth texture all will like it especially kids. I love anything made with peanuts so kadalai urundai and this peanut ladoo are my favorite.

    Generally we make peanut ladoo by making syrup but this is a easy version. I have already posted kadalai mittai with jaggery syrup but this recipe is very simple and easy with no consistency checks. Just powder peanuts along with jaggery and shape them into balls, the only tedious task here is to remove the skin of peanuts. I have given a easy way to remove the ski. We call it as groundnut ladoo too.

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup raw peanuts
    • 3/4 cup powdered jaggery
    • a generous pinch cardamom powder
    • 2 teaspoon ghee

    Instructions

    • First measure 1 cup of raw peanuts, dry roast till nicely browned and the outer skin start to come out.
    • Rub the peanuts with your hands and blow away the skin this is the easy way to remove the skin.
    • Then take peanuts in a mixer and give a quick grind as fine as possible. It will be slightly coarse only.
    • Now scrap the sides, add jaggery and then grind it again. Do not grind further more as it might let out oil and might turn sticky. This is the most important step in this peanut ladoo recipe.
    • Transfer this to a bowl, add cardamom powder and ghee.

    Notes

    • Ghee is added just for flavour. Even without ghee the ladoos hold together with oil in peanuts.
    • Sweetness is just perfect but if you want more then add 1 cup of jaggery.
    • If it hardens in the end for the last few balls then heat up the mixture for a minute, jaggery will melt ten you can make balls.
    • If you want crunchy texture in your ladoo then grind it even more coarse.
    • Add organic jaggery free from impurities in this case as we are adding it as such.
