Badam Burfi

Ingredients:
Badam/ Almonds: 1 cup
Ghee: 1 cup
Sugar: 1 cup
Maida: 1 spoon

Method:
De-skin the badam. Either soak the badam in water overnight and then remove the skin or take the badam in a bowl of water and heat in microwave for about 2-3 mins and de-skin. Now grind the skinned badam to paste. You could add milk/ water while grinding. In a thick bottomed pan, add the sugar and heat till the sugar melts fully (You could add a little water to it). Once the sugar has melted fully and starts thickening add the badam paste to it and stir continuously. Add ½ cup of Ghee to it now. Add maida also to this. Just when the mixture starts thickening, add the remaining Ghee into this mixture and mix well for about 10 mins. Keep a greased plate ready and pour the mixture onto the plate and tap so that the thickness is that of a “badam katli”. Cut into square/ diamond shaped pieces. Once it cools down, its ready to be eaten.
