Black Sesame Laddoo | Ellu Unde

Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings: 10 small laddoos
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: Indian

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup black sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp Jaggery powder or add to taste
  • 1 green cardamom
  • 1 tbsp melted ghee

Equipment

  • Thick-bottomed skillet or pan
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. Toast Sesame Seeds: Add the black sesame seeds to a thick-bottomed pan and dry roast them on medium heat until they start popping and smell nutty.
    Turn off the heat and allow them to cool.
  2. Blend: Transfer the cooled sesame seeds to a blender jar. Add cardamom and jaggery powder to it, and blend until smooth and the natural oils are released to hold the mixture together.
  3. Shape into balls: Shape the mixture into small balls using your hand while the mixture is still warm.
    You can add a tbsp of melted ghee too if you feel the mixture is dry. Adding ghee elevates the taste of these sesame laddoos as well.
    Enjoy!
