Peanut Ladoo
-
Heat a thick bottomed pan. Keep the flame to low or medium and add the raw peanuts.
-
Stirring at intervals begin to roast the peanuts.
-
Keep on roasting till the peanuts become crunchy.
-
The peanuts should not have even a bit of rawness in them. They should be roasted very well.
-
Just cool and taste a few peanuts. You should not feel even a bit of hardness or rawness while eating them.
-
If yes then continue to roast for some more minutes. You can even roast the peanuts in an oven.
-
Once the peanuts are roasted well, keep the pan down and let the peanuts cool at room temperature.
-
When the peanuts come at room temperature, rub the peanuts between your palms, so that their skin peels off.
-
Do this with all the peanuts. This part of peeling peanuts takes some time.
-
Now add the peanuts in a grinder jar.
-
Add jaggery powder or grated jaggery.
-
Grind till you get a coarse consistency in the peanuts.
-
Now take a small portion of the ladoo mixture in your palms and begin to shape it into peanut ladoos.
-
Make ladoos with the rest of the mixture.
-
Serve these healthy peanut ladoos plain as a sweet snack.
