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.
