Steps

25 minutes

1

In a blender take 1 cup of seedless dates and dry blend around 4-5 pulses. blend dates coarsely. keep aside.
2

Now finely chop cashews, pistachios and almonds. do not powder them as you won't enjoy the crunchy bites. now take a kadai and add a tbsp of ghee.
3

Add all the dry fruits like raisins, cashews, pistachios and almonds. fry them on medium flame for 3-4 minutes till they change colour lightly.
4

Now add coarsely blend dates. continue to fry on medium flame smashing dates with a spatula. this helps dates to separate out and mix uniformly with other dry fruits.
5

Also add cardamon powder and continue to saute. saute till the dates start releasing oil.
6

Turn off the flame and allow to cool for a minute or 2. then immediately start making laddus. do not cool completely, then you wont be able to make laddus. serve immediately or store ladoo in airtight container.
