Ingredients

4 total
  • 100 g of sesame seeds
  • 0.5 tsp of fennel seeds
  • 30 g of pistachios, crushed
  • 1.5 tbsp of condensed milk

Method

3 steps
  1. Step 1

    Toast the sesame seeds for 8 mins in a dry pan, until golden.

  2. Step 2

    While still hot, blend half the sesame seeds and all the fennel seeds into a coarse powder. Mix in a bowl with the whole sesame seeds and half the pistachios. Stir in the condensed milk – the mixture should become moldable. Add a drop more if too dry.

  3. Step 3

    Moisten hands and heaped tsps of the mixture and roll into balls. To decorate, put the leftover pistachios on a plate, then roll the ladoo in the nuts (optional).
