Badam Burfee Recipe
INGREDIENTS
Almonds - 2 cups
Sugar - 2 cups (take 2.5 cups, if you like it a little more sweeter)
Milk - 1/2 cup
Ghee - atleast 1/2 cup. More if you are ready for it :-)
METHOD:
Soak almonds for atleast 8 hrs. Then peel the skin of the almonds.
Grind the almonds with the milk to a paste. Try to make it as close to smooth as possible
Take a non-stick pan and warm 2 tsp of ghee
Pour the ground paste and cook it till the raw smell is gone. Ensure that you keep stirring continously, as the mixture can burn very quickly
Add the sugar to the mixture. Keep mixing (the mixture will become slightly watery, as the sugar melts)
Keep stirring the mixture till the point when the mixture no longer sticks to the pan.
In all this time, keep adding ghee 1 tsp a time (add atleast 6-7 tspns)
When the mixture no longer sticks to the pan, pour it into a greased plate
When the mixture is cooled almost half way, cut into desired shapes using a greased knife.
If you wish, you can garnish with sliced almonds (I did not do it). If you plan to do it, then do it as soon as you pour the mixture into the greased plate, to ensure that it sticks to the burfee.
Let it cool completely and then store into air-tight container
