Coconut Burfi

 

Diwali 

What comes to your mind when you think of Diwali. 
God ?  Lamps ?  Family ? Friends? Crackers ? Sweets? Snacks? New Dress? Celebrations? Holidays?
Yeah... We think about all of these.

Well,  I can't all put all my excitement and happiness into this post, but can share it with some easy and sweet recipes. Coconut Burfi is one of those.



Ingredients( Makes 32)

1 cup Grated Coconut / Dessicated Coconut
1 cup Sugar
2-3 tablespoons Water
20 Almonds
2 pinches Cardamom Powder
2 tablespoons Ghee

  1. Grease 2 plates with a tablespoon of Ghee.  Keep aside. Cut Almonds to half. Heat remaining Ghee in a small pan, fry Almonds till golden brown. Remove these from the pan and keep aside.
  2. Heat a heavy bottomed pan. Add Grated Coconut and Sugar to it. Mix it well. Add water to the pan and let coconut mixture boil for few minutes. Mix and Stir every minute. Add Cardamom Powder, mix continuously until the whole thing comes close and starts leaving walls of the pan. Don't let it change colour.
  3. Now transfer this onto greased plates, half of the mixture into each. Flatten it and shape it like a square of about a centimeter thickness. Use a sharp knife to adjust the sides and to cut into pieces. Place Almonds on it. Burfi thickens in about 20 - 30 minutes. Gently remove burfi from plate and store it. 
  4. Family and Friends, Have a Safe and Happy Diwali
