Til Ke Ladoo

Sesame seeds are a nutrient powerhouse, rich in essential minerals like calcium, iron, and magnesium. These seeds are a good source of healthy fats, including omega-6 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart health. Jaggery, a natural sweetener derived from concentrated sugarcane juice, provides iron and adds a natural sweetness to Til Ke Ladoo without the need for refined sugars.

-1cup / 240gm Jaggery
-3tbsp / 42gm Clarified Butter
-8pc / 320gm Pods Cardamom Seeds
-0.5cup / 125gm Water

Methods

1. Dry roast the sesame seeds in a flat pan on medium heat. Do this till they are a very pale golden color and aromatic.

2. Put the jaggery and water in a pan and melt to form a thick syrup. To test if it is done drop a little into a bowl of chilled water. If it forms a ball, the syrup is ready. If not, cook some more. Test again till ready.

3. Add the toasted sesame seeds to the syrup and mix well.Add the ghee and cardamom powder and mix well. Take off from heat.

4. Grease your palms and when the mixture is still hot take enough in your hand to form a golf ball-sized lump. Roll between your palms till smooth. Lay on a greased plate to cool.

5. Repeat till all the mixture is used up. The laddoos will soon harden to candy-like texture. Store for up to 10-15 days in an air-tight container.

6. Enjoy!
