             I thought some how I will send entries for the events FIC YELLOW,My Legume affair and Click ...Today I did one and the rest in following days I should be able to do....! Regarding this Maida burfi, My mom used to make in my childhoods, but I have to say that,My Maamis are expert! They do this in a jiffy that too perfect...!! My maamis used to add colorful tutty fruity to this,which I like the most,but unfortunately I didn't have any in stock,so I was not able to ...

            But this burfi is really easy to make,especially for beginners who wants to try hands in making sweet! It will be ready in a jiffy,with the simple ingredients,but taste will be great,soft,they just melt in your mouth...

Ingredients:

Method:

1. Keep a greased plate ready and a zip lock cover greased for leveling purpose.
2. In a pan/kadai,heat all the ghee and fry cashew nuts to golden brown and then add slowly the maida and fry in low flame, till the maida gets fried evenly (the ghee should be hot enough before u add,if you put a pinch of flour in it it should get fried immediately).Keep aside.
3. In a heavy bottomed vessel/kadai(non stick recommended),heat the sugar with little water to immerse the sugar,to one string consistency( If you pour the syrup in little cold water kept in a bowl,should form a string which doesn't dissolve immediately).
4. Now add the food colour,essence and put off the stove.
5. Remove from the stove and add the fried maida and keep on stirring.(yes Off fire!)
6. At one stage the mixture gets thickened you will know and when it is still loose enough to spread in a plate,spread evenly in the greased plate kept ready and use the zip lock to make the surface smooth and leveled...
7. After it gets cold,still warm,grease the knife and cut into desired shapes.After it completely cools down,invert the plate with the burfis into another plate and tap gently and ur burfis are ready!
8. Transfer to an airtight container,tastes great,just melts in the mouth!
