Dates or Kahjoor Laddoo



Dates/Kahjoor are very nutritious, high in fiber, promotes brain health, good in diabetic management.
 
Here is a healthy laddoo preparation 

Take a cup of seedless dates/ Khajoor, blend it in a blender coarsely, and please don’t add water. Now set it aside. In a large saucepan add 1 tsp of Ghee add, ½ cup almonds, ½ cup cashews, , roast on low flame for 3-5 minutes, till the nuts turn crunchy. To this add 1 tsp of Poppy seeds/ Khus khus and roast for a minute. Add the crushed dates and mix well. Let this mixture cook on a medium flame. Keep mashing the date. Now you’ll find the dates releasing oil. At this minute, turn off the flame and allow the mixture to cool for a while, say about 5 minutes. Now immediately start making laddoos. If the mixture gets cool completely, you’ll not be able to make the laddoos. Can eat it right there or/and can be stored in air tight containers for a month at least. You can use nuts of your choice, like Almonds, Pista, peanuts, cashews etc and if you want the Laddoos to taste sweeter, add some more dates. You can roll them in desiccated coconut or roasted Sesame.
