Coconut Almond Burfi
2 cups coconut freshly grated, I am using frozen shredded coconut
1-3/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup blanched almond powder
1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
Method
In a non-stick frying pan add coconut and sugar, cook over low medium heat, stir continuously till sugar is melted and mixture starts to bubble.
Add the almond powder and cardamom, keep stirring continuously, scraping the sides and bottom of the pan, until mixture start coming together and becomes consistency of soft dough. This should take about 6-7 minutes. Turn of the heat.
Pour the mixture into greased plate while burfi mixture is still hot spread it evenly about 3/4 inch thick in a square shape. Press the mixture with spatula to make it firm.
While burfi is still warm cut them in about one inch square.
Allow the burfi to cool for about an hour to dry and hold its shape. Now you can remove the burfi from the plate.
Burfi can be stored for 2 weeks in air tight container.
