Coconut Burfi



Ingredients:

  •  4 cups coconut
  •  cups sugar
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons ghee 
  • ½ teaspoon cardamom powder or elaichi
  • 2 tablespoons cashews chopped or pistachios
  • 2 cups milk 


Preparation:

    
    • Add coconut and pour milk.
    • Mix and bring it to a boil on a medium flame.
    • Reduce the heat and cook until the milk is evaporated.Then add sugar and cook until the moisture is completely evaporated.
    • Add ghee and continue to cook stirring constantly until the mixture turns dry & leaves the pan.
    • If it still has moisture then cook further to dry it. Keep stirring continuously at this stage and cook until the mixture turns dense, thick and sticky. It also turns very aromatic and leaves the pan. If you prefer a very soft set burfi then take it off a bit early.
    • Transfer the mixture to the greased pan and press down with a spatula. 
    • Sprinkle nuts and keep aside at room temperature for 3 to 4 hours to set.
    • Slice the coconut burfi. Leave it at room temperature for 8 to 10 hours to set completely.Cool and store.
