Til ko Laddu (Nepali Style Sesame Truffles) Recipe!!

Even though Maghe Sakranti is over for this year, I have been getting a lot of request for Til ko Laddo recipe. This year I had made some and managed to take some photos to share the whole process with you all. It was my first try and surprisingly this recipe is super easy. The end results were amazing :) This year I managed to make almost everything we eat on Maghe Sakranti back home and relived our culture abroad. Here you go guys, here I present you an easy way to make Til ko Laddu :D Also, Click here for Chaku Recipe and Click here for Khichadi Recipe.

Prep time: 5mins(s) Cook time: 40min(s) Total time: 45min(s)

Things you will need:
  • Sesame Seeds (White or black: 2 and 1/2 cups)
  • Jaggery (1/2 lb; cut into small pieces so that it melts easily)
  • Ghee (3 table spoons)
  • Oil (3 table spoons)
  • Water (5-7 table spoons)
Directions:
  1. On a deep dish add jaggery, ghee and water. Cook on a small heat until jaggery melts and becomes liquid consistency.
  2. In the meanwhile, roast sesame seeds. 
  3. On a plate, add one table spoon of jaggery mixture and around 2 table spoons of roasted sesame. 
  4. Rub your hands with oil to make the  laddos. First use spoon to mix (be extremely careful as jaggery mixture gets very hot) and then slowly use your hands to make a round shape.  Refer to 5th and 6th picture above for an idea.
  5. Repeat the process one after another.
  6. Done. Enjoy and store remaining on a container for other days :)
