Ingredients
For the Ladoo Mixture
- 1 cup Carrot grated
- 1/2 cup Sugar granulated
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom Powder ground cardamom (elaichi)

Cook the Carrots

Finish the Ladoo Mixture

Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Carrot Milk Ladoos
- For a richer flavor, use homemade ghee.
- Adjust the amount of sugar according to your preference and the sweetness of the carrots.
- If the dough is too dry, add a little more milk; if it's too sticky, add a little more milk powder.
- Get creative with additions! Try adding other spices like cinnamon or nutmeg, or different dried fruits and nuts.
