Sesame Groundnut Ladoo

Sesame groundnut ladoo is one healthy festive treat. Minimal ingredients but there is absolutely no compromise in terms of taste. If anytime you feel you have had enough, then u can stuff them into wheat flour dough and make pancakes( shengada holige/ groundnut sesame obattu).

This delectable delight takes me back to the days when me and my sister (guddu) used to dress up on nag panchami to visit temple, offer milk and these ladoos to nag devata. I can never get those days back but the memories of that time always manages to get a smile on my face.

Happy Nag Panchami everyone.
