1. 1
   Place 1 cup of roasted peanuts into a completely dry blender jar, after first removing their skins, since the skins contain salt that can make the sweet taste off.
   ▶ ≈0:42
2. 2
   Grind the peeled peanuts coarsely into a powder and set aside.
   ▶ ≈1:12
3. 3
   In the same jar, add 1 cup of jaggery powder and grind it into a fine paste.
   ▶ ≈1:18
4. 4
   Combine the jaggery paste with the ground peanuts and knead thoroughly by hand until the mixture holds together well enough to shape.
   ▶ ≈1:25
5. 5
   Optionally, if using regular hard jaggery, grind it first on its own, then pulse it together with the peanut powder twice for a smoother mix.
   ▶ ≈1:38
6. 6
   Take small portions of the dough and roll them into balls with your palms, rolling smoothly to avoid cracks — no oil or ghee is needed since the peanuts release their own natural oil.
   ▶ ≈1:50
7. 7
   Your tasty, healthy peanut laddus are ready — made entirely without turning on the stove.
   ▶ ≈2:15
8. 8
   For the alternate method using raw peanuts, roast them in a pan over medium-low heat until the skins loosen easily and the peanuts turn crisp, being careful not to burn them on high heat.
   ▶ ≈2:48
9. 9
   Let the roasted peanuts cool completely, then rub off the skins with your hands.
   ▶ ≈3:13
10. 10
    Grind the peeled peanuts coarsely in the blender, then add 3/4 cup of jaggery and grind until fine.
    ▶ ≈3:37
11. 11
    Transfer the ground mixture to a bowl and shape it into laddus the same way as before to complete the second method.
