Thengai Ladoo

Fresh coconut ladoos made in 10 minutes — sweetened with jaggery, bound with a touch of extra virgin coconut oil. Simple, ancient, completely pure.

Ingredients

Desiccated or fresh grated coconut 1½ cups
Jaggery, grated ½ cup
Cardamom powder ¼ tsp
Sree Kumaran Extra Virgin Coconut Oil 1 tsp

Method

  1. Combine coconut, jaggery and cardamom in a pan on low heat. Stir continuously until jaggery melts and binds with the coconut, about 5–7 minutes. Do not over-cook or it becomes dry.
  2. Off heat, add coconut oil and stir through. When cool enough to handle, roll into smooth balls. Cool completely. Keeps for 4 days.

The small amount of extra virgin coconut oil added off the heat gives these ladoos a silky, non-sticky surface and adds a clean coconut fragrance. It also extends shelf life naturally. This is a 4-ingredient recipe with nothing to hide.

Made with Sree Kumaran Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
