Remove the cardamom seeds from their papery outer shell and grind finely using a pestle & mortar

In a large saucepan add 220g of the dessicated coconut, condensed milk and powdered cardamom

Heat over a medium flame stirring constantly until just before the mixture begins to colour (about 5 minutes) and most of the liquid has evaporated

Allow the mixture to cool slightly before forming into balls the size of marbles using the palms of your hands

Roll the balls in the reserved 30g of dessicated coconut
