ABOUT Poha Ladoo with Chocolaty Coconut Filling RECIPE

Poha ladoo with chocolaty coconut stuffing, sounds interesting, isn't it? Chocolate, all time favorite of kids along with coconut stuffed inside the ladoo is a superb snack for kids. Here I have used the white poha, but you can use the red ones which are rich in iron. These ladoos are easy to make, you can even make it during festivals. Dry fruits (cashews, raisins) which I have used, can be omitted / any other dry fruits can be added.

Poha / aval / rice flakes / beaten rice (white / red) 1.5 cup
Sugar / grated jaggery 3/4 cup
Cardamom pod 4 no.
Coconut (grated) 4 tbsp
Chocolate chips 3 tbsp
Ghee ¼ cup
Cashews 10 no.
Raisins 10 no.

Instructions

Heat a heavy bottom pan. Dry roast poha / aval till crunchy. Cool completely. Mean while crush the cardamom pods.
Grind the crunchy poha, crushed cardamom and sugar in a blender very well. Try to make a fine powder and transfer to a plate.
The next step is to prepare the stuffing. Put coconut in a pan and cook until dry. Lastly add chocolate chips. Switch off the heat and keep aside.
Then heat ghee, fry roughly chopped cashews and raisins. Add ghee along with fried cashews and raisins to the ground poha powder.
Knead everything. If needed use more ghee for well binding. Take a tiny ball size portion of coconut and chocolate chips mixture. Cover it with poha mixture all around and give a ladoo shape.
Serve these poha ladoos with chocolaty coconut stuffing / store them in an air tight container.
