- in a blender take 1 cup of seedless dates and dry blend around 4-5 pulses, blend dates coarsely. keep aside. now finely chop cashews, pistachios and almonds. do not powder them as you wont enjoy the crunchy bites. now take a kadai and add a tbsp of ghee.
- add all the dry fruits like raisins, cashews, pistachios and almonds, fry them on medium flame for 3-4 minutes till they change colour lightly. now add coarsely blend dates, continue to fry on medium flame smashing dates with a spatula. this helps dates to separate out and mix uniformly with other dry fruits, also add cardamom powder and continue to saute. saute till the dates start releasing oil.
- turn off the flame and allow to cool for a minute or 2, then immediately start making laddus. do not cool completely, then you wont be able to make laddus. serve immediately or store ladoo in airtight container.
