If you have followed me for a while, you might already know about my love for mangoes . It's really hard for me to reserve some mangoes to try any recipes because i simply love eating them as it is !
But i have been wanting to make this ladoo for a while, so this summer, i bought some extra mangoes on every grocery shopping with a hope of making these ladoos before mangoes are gone for this season. As a result, so far i have made these ladoos three times ! Yep, it's that much good and addictive !
Procedure
Condensed Milk
For this ladoo, i have used condensed milk for sweetness. It gives such a rich taste to the ladoo.
Also depending on the sweetness of the mango, you may need more or less condensed milk.
So start off with 1/3 of condensed milk. First mix coconut, mango pulp and condensed milk, give a quick taste and then add more condensed milk if needed.
Fresh Mango Vs Mango Pulp
I have used fresh mango for this ladoo. But store bought mango pulp can also be used for this recipe. If you're using canned mango pulp, make sure to add less condensed milk because most of the canned mango pulp already has sugar in it.
Now let's check out on how to make these delicious mango ladoo.

Ingredients
Mango pulp - 1/2 cup
Desiccated Coconut - 1 cup
Condensed milk - 1/3 -1/2 cup*
Cardamom powder - 1/4 tsp
Ghee - 1 tbsp
* Depends on the mango sweetness, you can add more or less of condensed milk.
Take a one medium size well-ripen mango, scoop out all the flesh in a blender and grind into smooth puree. Take 1/2 cup of mango pulp from it.
Next add the desiccated coconut, mango pulp and condensed milk in a pan and then switch on the heat. Milk it all well together.
Cook it in a medium flame and within a few mins, it all comes together like a single mass. At this stage add the ghee and the cardamom powder.
Cook it for a few more mins. When you're able to roll the mixture into smooth ball, switch off the flame. The ladoo mixture is ready.
Notes:
- Within 8-10 mins the ladoo would be ready for the given quantity, so don't cook for a longer time otherwise the ladoo would be chewy.
- My mango is very sweet ,so i have added only 1/3 cup of condensed milk
- It stays well in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
- Use a fine variety of desiccated coconut.
- Use mango that has less fibre and in bright color for smooth and vibrant looking ladoos
- Store bought mango pulp can also be used for this recipe.
