NUTS BURFI

This burfi is similar to Choco- Cashew Badam Burfi, with mild alteration.

NUTS BURFI

INGREDIENTS:- 

( The cup which I used for this receipe is, 1 cup = 200 gms)

Cashew, Badam and Walnut = 1and 1/2 cup
Maida / All purpose flour = 1 cup
Ghee = 1/2 cup

Sugar = 1 and 1/2 cup
Water = 3/4 cup


Cardamom powder = 1/2 tsp
Nutmeg powder = 1/4 tsp
Safron Strings = 10

METHOD:-

Grease a plate with 1 tsp of ghee and set aside. Make a coarse powder of the nuts, walnuts, almonds and cashew.

Sieve maida before preparing.

Heat a kadai, add sugar and water. Bring the sugar-water to a boiling condition. The suitable stage for this burfi is (oru kambi padham ), one -string or 2nd stage. Click here for Sugar Syrup Stages.

In a separate pan, heat Ghee, till smoke emerges from it. Add Maida to it and stir continously for 4 mins, till it is cooked. Now add, the coarse powder of the nuts and mix well. Add Cardamom powder, Nutmeg powder and safron strings. Stir well. Switch off the flame.

When the Sugar syrup is ready, switch off the flame.

Add / Pour Maida-nuts mixture to this sugar syrup and stir continously to avoid lumps.

Now, heat this pan and stir continuously, till it leaves the sides of the pan. Transfer it to a greased plate and allow it to cool down.

After half an hour, tilt this plate ( i used aluminium foil paper), on another plate. Please check, whether the burfi is hard enough to cut.Using a cup or a spatula,   smoothly tap the greased plate, so that the burfi falls to the foil/plate.

Using a knife, cut into desired shapes.
