- ¼ cup Desiccated Coconut

Instructions
- Heat ghee in a pan. As the ghee shimmers, add the Makhana and dry roast until fragrant. Get them out of the pan and keep them aside in a separate bowl.
- In the same pan, add more Ghee. Dry roast the nuts and desiccated Coconut. Once fragrant, keep aside. Transfer this nuts mixture and roasted Makhana to a mixer jar and blend on high speed until smooth.
- Make Jaggery Syrup by melting Jaggery Powder with water in a pan. Cook until you have one-string consistency. Add Cardamom powder and stir until combined. Take it out in a bowl and allow it to cool down for 3 minutes.
- Now, combine the Jaggery syrup with the nuts and makhana powdered mixture. Make small laddos and keep them aside.
- Heat some more Ghee in a separate pan. Add desiccated Coconut, Sesame Seeds, and Poppy seeds in it. Roast until fragrant. Transfer to a shallow bowl. Roll the Ladoos in this mixture to coat them evenly on all sides. Transfer the Ladoos to a serving dish. Let rest for 5-10 min in the refrigerator and then serve.
