Namaste,
welcome to NishaMadhulika.com
Today we'll make besan ki barfi.
This is not a normal besan barfi,
it is different and very tasty.
We'll make it in a different way,
you will love it.
You can make it on any festival
or when you want to eat something sweet.
You will always love it.
Let's start!
I have taken 3/4 cup of ghee,
it's desi ghee.
We are making barfi,
desi ghee tastes great in barfi.
Can take vanaspati ghee instead.
Melt the ghee,
take 1.5 cups of gram flour.
Put it in the ghee
and roast it while stirring continuously.
Keep the flame medium.
Roast it at medium or low-medium flame.
Don't roast it at high flame.
If you'll roast it at high flame,
gram flour won't taste good.
A very good aroma is coming
and see the colour,
it has changed a bit.
We don't have to make it dark.
It took 7 minutes to roast it.
Turn off the flame now
and let it cool down a bit for 2 minutes.
Keep stirring it for a while,
as the pan is hot, it can burn from the bottom.
We cooled it down for 3 minutes,
its temperature has gone down, it is not too hot.
Now add milk powder to it,
this is 3/4 cup of milk powder.
Add little by little
and mix it.
Flame is off.
Add milk powder little by little to it.
There should be no lumps in it.
And filter the milk powder beforehand.
Because there are lumps in it
and it will be difficult to mix it with gram flour.
See they have mixed completely.
Keep them aside
and let's make chashni for it.
Take 1 cup of sugar
and 1/2 cup of water.
Turn on the flame
and cook it till sugar dissolves in water completely.
Stir it once in a while.
Sugar has dissolved completely,
let's check it.
Drop it like this with the spatula.
We've reduced the flame to low-medium.
A wire will form in the last drop.
You can check the chashni like this too,
stick it between your finger and thumb.
See a wire is forming,
the wire should form like this.
The chashni is ready.
Turn off the flame.
If you make chashni in a wide pan like this.
As soon as sugar dissolves in water,
start checking the chashni
and reduce the flame to low.
It should not be very thick.
Now add the roasted gram flour and milk powder
to the chashni.
We have turned off the flame.
Now mix them well.
Stir it continuously till it mixes well.
Take 4 coarsely grounded cardamoms,
can add 1/2 teaspoon of cardamom powder instead.
It looks a bit thin now,
but in a while gram flour and milk powder
will absorb all the water
and it will thicken.
Now to solidify it let's prepare the tray.
Put some ghee on the tray
and grease it completely.
Put the mixture into the tray.
Make it even.
Garnish it with some almond flakes
and some thinly chopped pistachios.
You can add any dry fruit to garnish it.
Can make barfi without garnishing too.
Press them lightly with a spoon,
so they set into the barfi.
Now keep it to solidify.
Barfi is set and ready
and it took 2 hours to set.
Let's cut it's pieces.
Heat the tray from below for 10-12 seconds.
All the pieces are cut and ready.
Besan ki barfi is ready.
It looks so good,
it is a very soft barfi
and is very tasty.
While making it remember,
while roasting gram flour,
keep the flame medium or low-medium.
Do not make the gram flour dark.
While mixing milk powder,
add it little by little.
Mix it properly till no lumps are left.
Make the chashni,
it should be one wire.
Mix the both of them
and cook it to this consistency.
Just remember these things,
a very tasty barfi will be made.
Store this barfi in any air tight container,
you can keep it outside and eat it for 15-20 days.
You will love it.
You must make and have this barfi
