Cashew Coconut Burfi


For the final day of Diwali sweet and savories is a simple and exotic cashew coconut burfi.Coconut burfi is a traditional sweet and can be made in so many ways.

Today's version is a very simple one and doesn't need of any sugar syrup consistency.For an added and rich taste,here I have used some cashew powder.As we like slightly soft burfi and I made it such a way.If you want a crispy version then keep the mixture on the flame for another minute or two.

Grated coconut
1 tbs
Cardamom powder/ellakai podi1/2 tsp


    
  Method 
  • Pulse the cashews in a blender with intervals to a fine powder and keep it aside.Grease a tray with a tsp of ghee and set it aside.
  • In a pan take the grated coconut and sugar,sprinkle a tbs of water and turn on the flame.The flame should be in  low to medium.Stir in continuously until the sugar melts.
  • Once and the mixture becomes thick add in the powdered cashews and cardamom powder.Mix it well and stir it for a minute and add in 2 tsp of ghee.Stir it until the mixture leave the sides of the pan.
  • Now take it out from the flame and pour it on the greased plate or tray.Level it with a greased spoon or spatula.After 10 minutes with the help of a knife or pizza cutter mark lines to cut it into desired shape.Gently remove the pieces from the tray after it cools down completely.

  • Here I have used 1 cup of sugar for 1 cup of grated coconut and the sweet was perfect for us.If you need more sweeter burfi,then it can be increased up to 1.25 cups.
  • Stir in continuously to prevent burning.
  • Once the mixture becomes thick and bit difficult to stir then it has reached the consistency and need to be taken out from the flame.
  • While pouring it on the tray sometimes the mixture might be in a runny consistency but after cooling it will be perfect.

Coming to day 2 recipe for the blogging marathon#62,themed under no tomato gravy is a rich and creamy cauliflower aka gobi masala. As my family loves cauliflower,so it appears in my kitchen frequently in some form.I tried this cauliflower curry without tomato and used yogurt and cashews paste.The result was such an awesome and creamy curry. The chilly powder I used was bit spicy so the curry was in the spicier side so squeezed some lemon juice in the end.So adjust the spice level according to your family preference.Lets move on to the recipe.........                                                                                                                                                                                    Cauliflower Masala/Gobi Masala                                                                         Basic Information    Preparation time 15 minutes     Cooking time 30 minutes    Serves 3(generously)
