COCONUT BARFI

Ingredients:

1 medium sized freshly grated coconut

250gm or little more than 1 pound sugar

1 litre milk

2 tsp fresh cream

1/4 tsp cardamom powder (Elaichi)

Method:

1. Mix the freshly grated coconut with milk in a heavy bottom 

pan for about 15-20 minutes on a slow flame.

2. Stir continuously with a spatula until all the milk is absorbed 

by the coconut.

3. Add the fresh cream to the mixture.

4. Add the sugar and mix well to make a ball like mass of the 

entire mixture which has good binding. 

5. At the right consistency, the mixture should not be sticky to 

touch.

6. Add 2 spoons of powdered sugar and cardamom powder at 

the end to the entire mixture after removing it from the flame.

7. Grease a plate with ghee and spread the mixture in an even 

and thick layer on it while it's still warm. You can use the flat 

side of a katori (bowl) greased with ghee to evenly spread the 

mixture.

8. Cut these into rectangular pieces while it's warm.

9. Your coconut Burfi is ready to serve once it cools down!

ps- this barfi tastes a lot better than plain coconut barfi, 

as with milk, it has the additional taste of rabri !
