Apple desiccated coconut barfi

I wanted to try something different with an apple and here it is.

INGREDIENTS

apple 1 wash, peel, core and cut into small pieces

sugar  150-200 gm

water 1/2 cup

desiccated coconut 1 cup

maida  2 cups

ghee 5-7 tbsp

cinnamon pdr little

cashews chopped 2 tbsp

 

METHOD

Heat a pot adding chopped apple pieces, cinnamon pdr, water and sugar in it. Give it a good mix.

Once the water starts boiling, keep the flame low, cover and let it cook till the sugar syrup gets a little thick.

Remove and keep it aside.

In a kadai or thick pan add 3 tbsp of ghee, let it melt, add maida

keep stirring maida till it slightly changes colour, at this point add desiccated coconut fry for another 2-3 minutes

now add little water or milk slowly stirring or lumps will form.

Once the moisture is absorbed, add some more water or milk, stirring cook it for 2-3 minutes

add the apple-sugar mixture, stirring well, adding a tbsp of ghee and chopped nuts

as it thickens add another spoon of ghee, keep stirring till the mixture all comes together leaving the sides of the pan, add some more ghee, stir it well

Spread on a prepared greased plate or tin, level the mixture, let it set well, then cut into desire pieces.
