How to make mango ladoos or mango ladoos recipes
To make mango raskadam ladoo, take one big mango, one and half a cup milk, one cup of desiccated coconut, five tablespoon sugar, three-four tablespoons of cashews, one tablespoon almonds, one tablespoon sugar, one teaspoon elaichi powder, one tablespoon malai.
Take the mango and cut it into small pieces and blend it into a blender to form a pulp. When the puree is formed, remove the puree from it and add milk, desiccated coconut, and sugar in a fresh blender. Blend these. Take a pan, put the milk and coconut mixture in it, and cook it on medium flame to thicken it.
When this mix thickens and gets coarse, add the mango pulp and stir until combined. Cook it on low heat. Cook it until a dough consistency is formed. Then cool it down for 15-20 minutes.
Add cashews, almonds, sugar and elaichi powder, desiccated coconut, and malai in a separate blender. Blend these to combine so that a coarse consistency is formed.
Then take this out in a bowl and give it the shape of small ladoos with your fist. Then take your mango dough and cover the small filling balls with the dough.
