So here is the recipe :

For basic burfi/barfi:

Ingredients'

' 100-125 ml. water

' A metal or Pyrex tray, greased with a little ghee/clarified butter

1. Mash or grate khoya. Cook it in a heated wok or karahi, until it becomes pink'ish in colour and comes off the edges of the pan. Keep aside in a metal or heat proof bowl.

2. Bring water to boil add sugar and stir to dissolve. Boil briskly until 3 wire consistency is obtained.

3. Pour over the mawa, mix quickly and turn out on to the greased tray.

4. Spread with a spatula, to approximately 2 cm. thickness. Even out with wetted fingers (to stop sticking).

5. Sprinkle pistachio/almonds, if used, and press gently into the khoya.

12. Dissolve orange and green colours of Indian flag or other colours of choice) in a tiny amount of water each, according to the instructions on packet/bottle and keep aside separately.

13. Follow up to step 3 of basic burfi/barfi and then divide the burfi/barfi mix in 3 portions.

14. Add 2 colours to 2 portions and keep 3rd one colour free. You can add flavours too, if you want.

15. Spread one colour portion on a tray to a thickness of 0.5 cm. Then add the white layer and then the third layer on top. You can choose any combination of colours and flavour.

16. Allow to cool and cut into shapes as before.

Take a pan and heat ghee into it. Put mawa into the pan and roast it on a medium flame till it turns light pink in colour. Now take it out in a bowl and let it cool down.

Take a tray or a plate and grease it with little oil.

Put sugar in a pan with water of 1/3 quantity of sugar to make syrup (chashni) (take 80 gms water for 250 gms sugar). Make a thick syrup, enough thick that it sets as soon as it is dropped on a plate. Test the consistency of the sugar by taking a drop between your fore finger and thumb. If it is too sticky and sets quickly between your fingers, then your syrup is ready. Now turn off the flame.

Cool down the syrup by stirring it continuously with the spoon. As soon as it cools down and starts to set, put mawa into it and mix it well with the syrup. Add cardamom powder also to the mixture.

Pour the mixture in the greased tray and spread it evenly into it. Garnish the mixture with chopped almonds and pistachios.

It takes 20-24 hours for a barfi to set and freeze. Once the barfi sets, cut it into the desired shape and size.

Your delicious Mawa Barfi is ready. Store it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator and eat whenever you like.
