Til gud ke ladoo recipe with step by step photos – delicious ladoos made with sesame seeds and jaggery.
I had made these til gud ke ladoos during one of the days on the Ganesh Chaturthi festival. Clicked pics so that I can post the recipe on website too. Usually i make these ladoos in small batches as sesame seeds are rich in calcium and are good for bone health.
This is one of those healthy ladoos that not only has sesame seeds, but also has peanuts and desiccated coconut. A very easy recipe and within half an hour the ladoos will be ready. You just need to roast everything and grind them. Here I have use organic unhulled unpolished sesame seeds which have a light brown color. You can even use black sesame seeds.
These sesame jaggery ladoos taste great. there are many ways til ladoos are made. Two more versions I have shared are:
- Til ladoo – where the jaggery syrup is cooked till a soft ball consistency.
- Til khoya ladoo recipe – where the ladoo are made with sesame seeds powder and Khoya.
Do note that sesame is heaty, so please avoid if you have heat related physical issues. These ladoos do help in keeping the body warm during cold seasons.
