Serves: 15 ladoo
Ingredients
- Coconut – 1
- Carrot – 2
- Sweetened Condensed Milk – 400 gm

Instructions
- Break the coconut and grate it. Keep ½ 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.
