Critical Success Points

  • Toast the coconut on low flame to avoid bitterness
  • Cook until the mixture leaves the sides of the pan – this ensures the right consistency
  • Shape the laddus while the mixture is still warm; it hardens quickly when cool

Safety Warnings

  • Hot pan and melted ghee can cause burns; handle with care
  • Do not leave coconut unattended on flame as it can scorch quickly
