Kaju Burfi

Dear Readers,


In India this month is an auspicious month of Shravan where all Hindus worship lord Shiva. Also many indians fast in this holy month and again a very beautiful festival of Rakshabandhan - a bond of brother and sister falls in this month. I thought of sharing a recipe of  sweet dish which can be used during festival and for those who are fasting. 




















Ingredients :-


2 bowls milk powder
150gm cashewnut powder
1 bowl sugar
1 cooking spoon ghee
1 cooking spoon warm milk
20 gm cardamom powder (elaichi powder)
1tbs of pistachio and almond powder each.



Preparation:-



  1. Take 2 bowl of milk powder and add the cashewnut powder , ghee and warm milk, also add cardamom (elaichi) powder to it and mix well.
  2. Make sugar syrup (chasni) thick of 3 strings ( 3 tar )
  3. Now add the mixture to the chasni and keep on stirring.
  4. Pre grease the plate and spread the mixture eventually with 2.5 inch thickness. 
  5. Garnish with pistachio powder and almond powder.
  6. Let the mixture cool down and then cut it into cubes or in diamond shap.


In the above recipe the sugar can be taken as per taste , preferably the measure of bowl is ideal. Just enjoy the festival with kaju burfi till i come with my next sweet dish.
