Til Aur Peanut Ladoo

🇮🇳 Indian

Sesame-jaggery ladoo, Makar Sankranti's iron-rich handshake. The taste of every good news day in an Indian household. Serve at room temperature, cut small — sweetness needs no size.

Prep 23 min Cook 49 min Serves 4 Medium

Ingredients

  • Salta pinch
  • Ghee3 tbsp
  • Peanuts1/2 cup, roasted
  • Sugarto taste
  • Sesame Seeds500 g
  • Jaggery3/4 cup, grated
  • Green Cardamom4, ground

Instructions

  1. 1

    Set out every ingredient measured and ready; Indian sweets move fast once the heat is on.

  2. 2

    Start the base: the sesame seeds and jaggery together in a thick pan, stirring so nothing catches.

  3. 3

    Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens and leaves the sides of the pan — 15 to 25 minutes of honest work.

  4. 4

    Season the mix with the peanuts and green cardamom, reserving some nuts for the top.

  5. 5

    Shape or slice once it has cooled enough to handle; it firms up as it rests.

Chef's tip

Resting the finished dish for five minutes off the heat lets the spices settle and deepen.
