Ingredients
400 gms condensed milk, 250 gms of
desiccated coconut, pinch of green cardamom/elaichi powder, 5 betel
leaves/paan ka patta, pinch of edible green colour, 1 cup desiccated
coconut (for rolling), 2 tbsp gulkand, 1 tsp ghee (for greasing), 2 tbsp
chopped dry fruits (cashew, walnut, pistachios, almonds)
How to make
Take
a pan and cook gulkand and dry fruits in it on slow flame till they
bind together. Switch off the gas and keep it aside to cool. Roll the
paan leaves together and finely chop them. Now, in heavy bottom pan,
pour condensed milk. Add desiccated coconut to it and mix well. Cook
condensed milk and coconut mixture in heavy bottom pan on medium flame.
Stir the mixture continuously. Add chopped paan leaves, pinch of green
food color and cardamom powder to it. Within 2 to 3 minutes, the mixture
will start leaving the sides and come together as dough. Switch off the
gas and allow it cool for few minutes.
Now, grease your palms
with ghee. Take a small portion of the mixture. Make a depression with
your thumb on it and place a bit of gulkand and dry fruits mixture
inside and roll between your hands into balls like ladoos. Make all the
ladoos in same manner. Now roll ladoos in desiccated coconut and keep
them aside. Paan Ladoos are ready to enjoy. Serve them.
