Notes :

• Make sure to roast the sathu maavu in low to medium flame. Keep stirring continuously and don't let it burn.
• Don't make the palm jaggery syrup too thick. It makes the ladoos too hard over time.
• Add palm jaggery syrup and ghee little by little. Otherwise, the mix may become watery. Don't tempt to add all at once.
• I used palm jaggery to make this sathu maavu ladoo as it has a unique flavor, which goes well with sathu maavu. But you can also use jaggery instead of palm jaggery.
• You can add ground nuts powder or sesame seeds/peanut powder to make it more healthy.
• You can also add cardamom powder/dry ginger powder for additional flavor. I have already added cardamom in the sathu maavu mix, so I skipped while making these ladoos.
• Store the ladoos in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerator depends on the weather. It stays well for a week.
• Always check with your baby's pediatrician before giving any new food to your baby.
• Make sure to introduce everything separate to your baby before you try this sathu maavu ladoo.
