Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Chickpea Flour (Gram flour | Besan)
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 cup Ghee
  • 1 cup Fresh Coconut grated
  • 3 cups Granulated Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Grease a tray in which you are going to set the burfi generously with ghee and set aside.
  • Take a non stick kadai or any heavy bottom kadai. Add 2 tablespoon ghee and the chickpea flour.Start roasting the flour for 3 to 4 minutes until aromatic.
  • Now add in sugar, milk, remaining ghee, coconut and mix well. Turn the heat to a high and mix well. The sugar will start to melt and the mixture will get slightly runny first. As you keep cooking on high the mixture will start to thicken up.
  • Keep mixing and cook it for 10-15 mins till you see the mixture gets thick and foamy. Once the mixture gets slighty foamy and thick, immediately transfer the mixture to the greased tray and spread evenly using a spatula.
  • Leave to set for 5 to 10 minutes. Now cut them into squares using a sharp knife and allow to cool. Now un mould the barfi and serve.

Notes

1)You can add half carrots and half coconut too.
2)I used a 100 ml ramekin as my cup. You can use measurement cups
