To prepare coconut ladoo, you'll need fresh grated coconut, condensed milk, sugar, cardamom powder, and ghee.
If you're using fresh coconut, grate it finely. If using dried coconut, ensure it’s unsweetened to avoid overly sweet ladoos.
In a non-stick pan, heat ghee and add the grated coconut. Stir it lightly to roast for a minute. Then, pour in the condensed milk and stir continuously.
Once the mixture has thickened, add sugar and cardamom powder.
Continue stirring the mixture over medium heat. Once it thickens enough to form a soft dough-like consistency.
Let the mixture cool slightly,Grease your palms with a little ghee, and shape the mixture into small, round ladoos.
Once the ladoos are cool and firm, serve them with fresh pistachios on top.
