India is a country of diverse culture and we have festivals round the year. Any festival is incomplete without sweets. I made these Coconut Carrot Ladoo today to enjoy with my family today. We just need 4 ingredients and flat 20 minutes to make these sweet balls.

Coconut carrot ladoo recipe
Ingredients
- Coconut - 1
- Carrot - 2
- Sweetened Condensed Milk - 400 gm
- Green Cardamom - 3
Instructions
-
Break the coconut and grate it. Keep 1/4 cup of the grated coconut separately to use it in the end.
-
Peel and grate carrot.
-
Add the grated carrot in a heavy bottom pan and saute for 2 minutes on low flame. This will remove the raw smell from the carrots.
-
Remove the pan from the flame. Add coconut and condensed milk in the pan. Mix well.
-
Heat the pan and keep stirring so that it does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
-
Once it starts boiling, lower the flame and cook on a low flame till the mixture starts leaving the sides of the pan or starts thickening. It will take 4-5 minutes.
-
Powder the cardamom pods, add it and mix well.
-
Remove from the flame and let it cool down.
-
Take a small portion of the mixture. Roll into round shape balls. Roll the balls in the reserved grated coconut and ladoo is ready.
