Serves: 3 (6 laddus)

Ingredients

• • A cup (around 127 g of raw peanuts).
  • A tablespoon of melted ghee.
  • One-fourth cup of jaggery (grated or powdered)

How to Prepare

• • Roast the peanuts in a thick-bottomed frying pan. Make sure to keep stirring to prevent the peanuts from burning.
  • Take them out in a bowl and allow them to cool. Cooling the peanuts after roasting helps make them crunchy.

  • In a grinder, add the peanuts and grind once or twice to form a coarse powder.
  • Pour them out on a plate.
  • Add jaggery and ghee again to the grinder and grind once or twice.
  • Pour them out and mix both the powdered mixtures properly.
  • The mixture will be able to hold shape.
  • Prepare round balls and serve.
  • You can store the remaining in an airtight container.

Instructions

• Make sure to not grind the peanuts too much, as it will release oil and turn into peanut butter. People with a peanut allergy should consult a medical expert before consuming peanut laddus.
