BM #113 Week 2 Day 3 -
Today's letter happens to be 'O' in the A-Z series. So I present the ever popular Kobbari Lauzu in a new avatar. I added quick cooking oats to the mix and the result was amazing.
Since Oats has become a common grain used in today's kitchen everywhere, I feel I can classify this as an Andhra dish. Before checking the recipe, here is the list of recipes so far in this A-Z series of Andhra Dishes..

Ingredients -
Quick Cooking Oats 1/2 cup
Coconut, shredded 1/2 cup
Jaggery Powder 1/2 cup
Almonds Crushed 2 Tbsp
Ghee 1/4 tsp
Method Of Preparation -
In a heated pan, add ghee and roast the crushed almonds and quick cooking oats until they are golden brown and aromatic.
Remove them onto a plate and coarse grind the oats and set aside.
Using the same heated pan, add jaggery powder and about a tablespoon of water.
Add the shredded coconut (I thawed the frozen coconut and added) and the coarse ground roasted oats.
Mix well until all the jaggery is absorbed and the mixture starts to dry out.
Remove from heat and set aside for a few minutes. While the mixture is still warm to touch, pinch about 1/2 a tablespoon of the mixture and roll into laddus.
Set aside for a few minutes allowing them to firm up.
Serve them and enjoy !
Preparation Time 15 minutes
Makes 9-10 laddus
That is a yummy twist to traditional kobbari lauzu. Oats are such a versatile ingredient and blend well into many different recipes. This one is quite a genius idea.
I like that it doesn’t have a lot of ghee in there. The bite from coconut must be quite nice in this ladoo.
A lovely twist to already delicious kobbari lauzu. I am sure this must have tasted yummy.
Absolutely fantastic ! I am a great fan of ladoos and this is bookmarked , hopingly for the upcoming Ganpati Festival .
Excellent choice Harini, love these laddos..
Wow such a healthy and tasty ladoo. Good one.
