Preparation Time : 10 mins Cooking Time : 25 mins Unsweetened Khoya|Mawa 1 and 1/2 cup Sugar 1/2 cup Ghee 2 tblsp Pistachios few (for garnishing)
Bring the khoya to room temperature. I used the Nanak Brand Khoya . Take half of it and crumble it with your hand and measure 1 and 1/2 cup. Keep it aside. Pound the pistachios in a mortar and pestle coarsely. You can chop them into fine pieces too.
In a pan add ghee and start roasting the khoya in a low flame till it becomes golden brown. It will be slightly grainly or crumbled texture after it is getting roasted. Roasting will took approximately 15 minutes.
Combine sugar with 3 tblsp of water and let it boil for 4 to 5 minutes. No need to get string consistency. Add the sugar syrup to the roasted khoya.
Cook in a medium flame till the mixture leaves the side of the pan. It will take 3-4 minutes only. Transfer this mixture to a greased plate and sprinkle the copped pistas on this. Pat gently with the back of a spoon.
When it is warm cut them into desired shapes.
The burfis will be bit chewy when u taste it immediately. After refrigeration of 2 hours, they become firm and it stayed well for a week in the refrigerator.
