Rava Coconut Ladoo, a delicious and easy to make ladoos with semolina and coconut. Rava ladoo is one of ST's favorite sweets and the only sweet he asks me to make often. So far,apart from the regular rava ladoo, I have tried quite few variations like making them using condensed milk and  sugar syrup without ghee. Each one has its unique taste & texture.

And this rava coconut ladoo is my recent favorite in this rava ladoo series. In general, I love anything with coconut in it and coconut gives nice aroma and taste to this ladoo. If you like me who loves coconut, give this method a try next time when you make rava ladoo.

While making this ladoo, make sure to roast both rava and coconut until they are aromatic, that makes a lot of difference in both taste and texture wise. So far I have made this ladoo for a handful of times and in every time, the amount of ghee needed varies slightly plus or minus 2 tsp of ghee. 

Therefore add ghee little by little and stop when it starts holding shape, even if it doesn't hold shape after using all the ghee, you can add more ghee or simply use a couple of tsp of warm milk or water. Milk actually reduces the shelf life of the ladoo, so if you're making this ladoo in large quantities, I would recommend sprinkling a couple of tsp of warm water to hold the shape. It doesn't affect the taste at all. Now let's check out how to make this delicious rava coconut ladoos.

Notes:
  • No need to powder the rava, just give a couple of pulses until it all mix together.
  • The ghee should be hot, so that it holds the ladoo in shape well.
  • If the ladoo shape doesn't hold well, you can add a couple of tsp of boiled milk/warm water.
