Method for preparing coconut burfi.
1. Add little ghee, roast the broken cashews till
golden brown and keep aside. Grease a plate/tray with ghee and keep it ready.
Take wide bottomed pan add sugar and water mix well till sugar dissolves
completely and starts bubblin
2. Keep stirring continuosly, cook till a single
string consistency: If you take a drop between your thumb and index finger you
can see a single string forming as shown in the 2nd thumbnail - thats the right
consistency. At this stage add khoya and mix properly and then add coconut.
3. Combine and keep stirring till bubbles star
forming at the edges. At this stage add ghee.

switch it off.
5. Transfer the mixture to the tray and cut into
squares when its still warm. Cool down completely then store it in airtight
container.
