Directions : Besan burfi Recipe

STEP 1.Melt ghee in a pan on medium heat. Add the sifted besan into the pan and stir. Lower the heat
STEP 2.Start stirring, the besan will clump up at first. Don't worry and keep stirring.
STEP 3.After around 15 minutes, the besan will start to loosen up (see pictures above).
STEP 4.After stirring for around 20 minutes, it will become smooth.
STEP 5.Around 25 minutes, it will become like a smooth paste. Add cardamom powder at this point and cook for 5 more minutes.
STEP 6.So, I cooked the besan for total of 30 minutes on low heat. Remove pan from heat and set aside.
STEP 7.Let it cool down while you make the sugar syrup. Besan should cool down to room temperature before sugar syrup is added to it.
STEP 8.To a pan, add sugar and water on medium heat.
STEP 9.Let the sugar dissolve, will take around 4 to 5 minutes.
STEP 10.Then lower the heat and let syrup simmer for 5 to 6 minutes until it reaches one string consistency.
STEP 11.It takes me 6 minutes always after the sugar dissolves to reach the 1 string consistency on low heat.
STEP 12.Put a drop of sugar syrup between your thumb and index finger and pull them apart, you should see a single thread formation. This is the right consistency. If you have a kitchen thermometer this becomes much easier, it should measure 110 C (230 F) when done.
STEP 13.Turn off the heat as soon as the syrup reaches that stage. Do not over cook the sugar syrup.
STEP 14.Now add the sugar syrup to the cooked besan (which has cooled down at this point).
STEP 15.Stir until all the sugar syrup is well combined with the besan.
STEP 16.Pour batter into greased tin and Tap the pan to get rid of excess air. Sprinkle pistachios on top.
STEP 17.Let the burfi set for 2-3 hours (or more) and then cut into pieces. I trim the edges and then cut them into squares. Store besan burfi at room temperature for 10 days!
