Ingredients for Coconut Laddu (Nariyal ke Laddu)
- 1 tin Nestlé MILKMAID
- 100 gms Milk Powder
- 5 cups (350 gms) Fresh Grated Coconut
How to make Coconut Laddu (Nariyal ke Laddu)
- Step 1: Keep aside 1 cup of the grated coconut. Put Nestlé MILKMAID, milk powder, and remaining grated coconut into a thick-bottomed pan and mix well. Heat the mixture, stirring constantly, so it does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
- Step 2: Switch the flame to low and cook until the mixture starts leaving the sides of the pan (approx. 5 minutes). Remove from the flame and let it cool.
- Step 3: Once cooled, take small portions and roll them into laddus using oiled hands. Then, roll the laddus in the reserved grated coconut. The laddus are now ready to be served.
Tips to Make Coconut Ladoo
- Use freshly grated coconut for the best flavour and texture of Coconut Ladoo. If using desiccated coconut, soak it in a little milk to hydrate it.
- Make sure the milk powder is lump-free before adding it to the mixture for a smooth texture.
- Gradually add Nestlé MILKMAID while mixing to ensure an even blend and achieve the desired creaminess and sweetness in your Coconut Ladoo mixture.
- Cook the mixture on low to medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent it from sticking to the pan, as mentioned in the Coconut Ladoo recipe.
- Grease your hands lightly with ghee to stop the mixture from sticking.
- Let the mixture cool a bit before shaping it into Coconut Ladoos to make it easier to handle.
- Store the Coconut Ladoos in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
