Today, 7aum Suvai is celebrating its 4th blog annivesary. At this time I would like to thank all my blog readers and blogger friends for your continues support and encouragement. I am sharing this khoya burfi / mawa burfi for this special occasion, that tasted awesome. As my blog is entering 5th year, 7aumsuvai is coming up with new style and look. I hope you all like it. Please do share your experience and suggestions if any.

Ingredients:

Yields 9 to 10 burfi

• 1 cup – Khoya / mawa (unsweetened)
• 1/4 cup – Sugar
• 2 to 3 tbsp – Milk
• 2 pinches – Cardamom powder
• 2 tbsp – Chopped nuts (cashew nuts and almonds)
• 1 tbsp – Ghee
• Saffron strands few pinches

Preparation method:

1. Take a mixing bowl, add khoya (bring khoya to room temperature if its frozen) and mash it well. Set it aside.
2. Take a bowl, add lukewarm milk and saffron, allow them to soak for while.
3. Heat 3/4 tbsp ghee in a pan, add chopped nuts and roast until they are golden brown in color, set it aside.
4. Now add mashed khoya and fry for few seconds. Then add saffron milk, sugar and cardamom powder, mix well and cook for 5 to 10 minutes (mine took 7 minutes).
5. Finally add 1/2 roasted nuts and give a good mix. Grease a pan and pour the mixture in a greased plate. Level it with a greased flat spoon or even flat bowl. Now sprinkle rest of the chopped nuts and press it slightly.
6. Allow them to cool completely and cut into desired shapes. Khoya burfi is ready.

Notes:

• If you don’t prefer nuts, you may avoid it.
• Always keep the flame in medium or low.
