Rava Coconut Laddu


This laddu is one of my family's favorite laddus which is very easy to make. It's rava laddu made with shredded coconut.

Ingredients:
Rava/Semolina - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 cup (powdered)
Coconut (grated) - 1 cup
Ghee - 1 tbsp + 1.5 tsp for frying.
Cardamom -1 pinch (powdered)
Milk - 1/2 to 3/4 tbsp
Cashewnuts - 5 (broken)
Raisin - 6

Method:
Fry the rava in 1 tsp of ghee till a nice aroma arises and cool.
Fry the grated coconut till it changes to golden colour in low-heat.
Meanwhile fry the cashews and raisins in ghee.
Grind the rava but it shouldn't be too powdery.
In a wide plate add the rava, coconut, sugar, cashew, raisins and mix.
Now pour the melted ghee on this mixture.
Sprinkle 1/2 tbsp to 3/4 tbsp of warm milk.
Make balls immediately out of the mixture.
