Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1/4 Tsp Cardamom powder
  • Fresh mango pulp (completely optional)
  • Saffron (optional)

Coconut Burfi



Preparation:
  1. Grease a plate with ghee and keep it aside.
  2. Take a think bottom pan and pour 2 Tsp of ghee. Once ghee is hot add coconut and saute it for 2 mins. 
  3. Then add Sugar. Again saute the mixture on medium flame till the mixture starts to leave the bottom of pan and forms a single dumpling. (at this point you can add fresh mango pulp and stir for a minute to make it thick. The coconut and mango combination tastes divine together. You can also add few saffron strands.)
  4. Now pour the mixture onto the greased plate(no 1) and spread the mixture to thick layer with spatula.(apply some ghee to spatula as well to avoid sticking)
  5. After 5 minutes when the mixture is still hot/warm, cut the spread into pieces like in above picture.
  6. Sprinkle finely chopped almonds/cashews for decoration if desired.
  7. Let it cool down completely then store in airtight container.
