Nariyal Burfi

🇮🇳 Indian

Coconut burfi, three ingredients and zero failures. Ghee, sugar, patience — the three ingredients in every Indian celebration. Best after resting an hour; the flavours settle.

Prep 29 min Cook 31 min Serves 4 Medium

Ingredients

  • Salta pinch
  • Ghee3 tbsp
  • Sugar1 tsp
  • Grated Coconut1 cup
  • Green Cardamom1 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Set out every ingredient measured and ready; Indian sweets move fast once the heat is on.

  2. 2

    Put the grated coconut and sugar on a steady medium flame and commit to stirring — sweets test your patience.

  3. 3

    Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens and leaves the sides of the pan — 15 to 25 minutes of honest work.

  4. 4

    Stir in the ghee with the cardamom; the aroma should bloom immediately.

  5. 5

    Tip into a greased tray, level the top, sprinkle nuts, and let it set before cutting into diamonds.

Chef's tip

Resting the finished dish for five minutes off the heat lets the spices settle and deepen.
