Easy Maida Burfi | Barfi or Fudge made using flour, ghee and sugar which creates this delicious fudge like cake. Perfect and simple burfi to make for this diwali or any festive occasions. Easy sweet which can be made in under 30 mins.
In my place, there is a sweet stall. They sell a burfi which taste so yummy. It is soft and just melt in your mouth. Yesterday me and my mom were having an argument, she told me that those burfis are made with gram flour, but i told her that no not at all, they are made with maida. This argument got very serious and i told her that i will make you that burfi right now, lets taste and decided. Immediately i got into action and made it, and when she tasted it she accepted that it is made with maida.

I am going to make this. I have also noted down 2 other burfi recipes from your blog to make as xmas gifts for friends. I'm glad that it's made with normal flour because I don't use chickpea flour regularly- the rest would go to waste when I buy a bag. Could you also do a soan papdi or patisa recipe- with the flaky layers?
Thanks!

Once we take off the stove and add the maid a mixture...should we mix it and put it back or just keep mixing it with out putting it back on the stove

Once it is taken off heat need not put back to heat again? The consistency is achieved just by stirring off heat?
