Story/History of recipe
Peanuts are consumed all over the world in many different ways. Apart from the most common ways like peanut butter, Verusenaga oil and simply roasted Verusenaga they are also included in various supplemental bars because of its nutrient content. Peanut Laddu can be a much simpler version of such bars. These crunchy and sweet candies are originally from Kovilpatti, Tamil Nadu (South India) and have been commercially available since the 1940s. Though they were part of many festival special sweets, it has now become a favourite and common household treat.

Peanut Laddu Recipe Preparation Steps
If you’re looking for a quick and easy treat that packs a nutritious punch, a Peanut Laddu is the perfect option. This delightful Indian sweet is not only delicious but also packed with health benefits, making it an ideal snack for all ages. To get started, gather your ingredients: peanuts, jaggery (or sugar), and optional flavorings like cardamom or coconut. The process of making these traditional laddus is straightforward and can be a fun activity for the whole family. Begin by dry roasting the peanuts until they are golden brown. Once cooled, grind them into a coarse powder. Simultaneously, in a pan, melt the jaggery until it forms a syrup, ensuring it doesn’t caramelize too much.
Detailed Peanut Laddu Recipe Preparation Steps
After your jaggery syrup is ready, mix in the ground peanuts along with your chosen flavors to create a homogenous mixture. Allow it to cool slightly but not harden, as you will need to shape it while it’s still moldable. Grease your hands lightly to prevent sticking and start forming small balls out of the mixture. This is where you can get creative—roll them in desiccated coconut or crushed nuts for an added texture. Once shaped, set the laddus on a plate to cool completely, and they are ready to enjoy! These Peanut Laddus are not only a fantastic source of energy but also a wholesome way to incorporate more protein into your diet. With these easy Peanut Laddu recipe preparation steps, you can share this timeless treat with your loved ones, bringing a taste of India right into your kitchen!
