- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/4 tsp cardamom powder

- Into the food processor add the nuts a small quantity at a time and bring them to break down a bit.
- Add cardamom powder, and chia seeds and give it another pulse.
- Add the dates a little at a time and pulse.

- Remove the mix at this point on to a plate and shape small portions into a ball to form ladoos.

Notes
As we break down the nuts we are looking for a coarse breakdown and not a fine powder. however, if you have smaller kids or elderly people, it is best to powder the nuts finely and then mix with the dates.
