Kaju Barfi
Kaju Barfi

INGREDIENTS

  • Kaju – 1 ½ cup
  • Purabi Milk – 1 cup
  • Sugar – 1 cup
  • Purabi Ghee (for greasing) 

Method

         First Part –

  • Heat up a non-stick pan in low flame and cook the sugar till it starts to caramelize.
  • Blend the Kaju and milk in a blender/grinder separately.
  • Once the sugar melts into a syrup, add the kaju-milk mixture in the pan.
  • Mix the syrup well with the Kaju mixture and keep stirring consistently to avoid forming lumps.
  • Pro Tip – Make sure to keep the flame low the entire time.
  • Cook till the mixture reaches a dough-like consistency and leaves the side of the pan.
  • Take off the pan from heat and allow the mixture to cool completely.

          Second Part –

  • Take a tray and grease it well with Ghee.
  • Spread the cooled mixture into the tray and roll it with the help of a roller.
  • Maintain an even thickness of around ½ cm while rolling the mixture.
  • Once it’s evenly spread with the desired thickness, put it in the freezer for an hour or so.
  • After an hour, take it out and cut it in criss-cross pattern to form diamond shapes.
  • Your barfi is now ready to serve!

         Pro Tip – Before cutting up the barfis, you may additionally cover the flattened mixture with silver leaf to add a luxurious touch.
