Mango Sheera Burfi

          Burfi is one of the most common and popular Indian sweets. It is a must in all festivals, ceremonies or any auspicious occasions. It is typically prepared with milk solids and gram flour / nuts. During this ongoing mango season, let me share a very easy and a yummy burfi made of mango-semolina combo that takes very little time to dish out. So give it a try and serve, garnished with chopped pistachios and dried rose petals. 

• 1/2 cup semolina, dry roasted (makes 8-10 Pieces)
• 2-3 tbsp. ghee
• 1 mango, pureed
• 2 cups milk
• 1/2 tsp. cardamom powder
• sugar to taste
• 1 tsp. kewra water
• 1 tsp. chopped nuts
• 1 tsp. dried rose petals (opt)

          Blend the milk and mango puree and keep aside. Heat ghee in a pan and dry roast the semolina for 2-3 minutes or till you get a nice aroma. 

          Add the milk-mango puree mix, sugar and cardamom powder. Keep stirring on a medium flame till it gets thick and starts to leave the sides of the pan. 

          Switch off the flame and add the kewra water. Transfer to a greased plate and allow it to set. Refrigerate for an hour. Cut into desired size and serve, garnished with chopped nuts and rose petals.
