Preparation Time: 5 mins  | Cooking Time: 20 mins | Yields: 12 Burfi

Ingredients:
Grated Coconut
1 cup
Sugar
¾ cup
Water
½ cup
Cardamom Powder
¼ tsp

Procedure
1. Grate the coconut; you need one portion of grated coconut when tightly pressed in the measuring cup.
2. Heat the heavy bottom pan, add water, sugar and cardamom powder.
3. Mix them occasionally till the sugar dissolves completely.
4. Add the grated coconut and mix them well. Cook them in a medium flame.
5. Stir the mixture occasionally, cook till the mixture becomes thick and does not stick the walls of the pan.  Immediately switch off the flame.
6. Meanwhile, grease the plate with ghee.
7.  Transfer the mixture into the greased plate and level them with backside of the ladle or spoon. Leave it for 5 mins.
8. Now cut the burfi into desired shapes. (either square or rectangle)
9. Allow it to cool down completely and store it in an airtight container.
                 Serve with spicy snacks and enjoy!


Note:
1. Grate the coconut without any black part, so that you can get pure white coconut burfi.
2. Add 1 cup sugar, if you want more sweetness.

3. If the burfi as come out very hard and dry immediately add some more water and mix them well while keeping on the flame.
4. If the burfi is too soggy and the cut shapes are not coming well, immediately heat it for while again.
4. I have used 240 ml cup, so that I got 12 burfi.
