Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rava
  • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup+ 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 1 tablespoon cashews broken
  • 1 tablespoon raisins
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder

Instructions

  • Take sugar in a mixer, grind it to a fine powder, Set aside.
  • Roast rava till nice aroma rises, don't let it brown.
  • Switch off and cool down for a while.
  • Transfer to a mixer jar and grind it a slightly fine powder.
  • Measure coconut flakes and keep it ready.
  • In a mixing bowl - take powdered sugar,rava and dessicated coconut and mix well.Chop cashews and keep it ready.
  • Heat ghee, measure and keep aside.
  • In the same pan fry raisins till it plumps up then fry cashews till golden brown.
  • Add the fried nuts and raisins to rava mixture along with cardamom powder and mix well with a ladle. Now take ghee.
  • Add little by little and keep mixing. Break the lumps and keep mixing.
  • Shape them into small ladoos. Cool down and store in airtight container.
  • Coconut Rava Laddu keeps well for 5 days in room temperature itself!

Notes

  • Adding hot ghee helps in rolling the balls tight.
  • I usually don't add the entire ghee, add little by little so that we can have control over ghee.
  • You can even add rava as such without grinding.
  • If you don't get desiccated coconut, then use fresh coconut but roast it till slightly golden then add it. But ladoo using fresh coconut has less shelf life.
  • You can even add half and half milk and ghee. But when milk is added rava becomes soft with ghee it is crisp always.
  • The laddu keeps well for 5-6 days in room temperature.
