Ingredients: 1 cup Sesame Seeds ¾ cup Jaggery (I grated it) ½ cup Desiccated coconut (I used dry coconut powder since I only had that on hand) 2 tbsp Cashews broken ½ tsp cardamom powder 1 tbsp Melted Ghee (optional)

Method: * Dry roast the sesame seeds in a non stick pan. until brown. * Add rest of the ingredients except Ghee and cashews. * Grind it into a fine powder. You will find that the oil from the seeds is enough to bind the powder into ladoos. * Alternatively, I roasted the cashews pieces in ghee since I wanted the flavor and little bit of richness. * Once the cashews browned, I added them to the ground sesame-jaggery mixture in a bowl and gave it a quick mix. * While hot, shape them quickly into balls. You can enjoy them simply as powder too. * Shape all of them likewise. I think I got around 8-10 ladoos.
