Mawa/ Milk Powder Burfi




Mawa/ Milk Powder Burfi

Burfi is one of my favorite sweets and this milky fudge candy is undoubtedly one of the easiest to make. If you have mawa milk powder in hand you can make this in less than 15 minutes.This delicious milk candy/fudge is a yummy treat for any festival or holiday season. If you do not have mawa milk powder you can substitute it with full fat milk powder. Try this, you will surely love it.


Ingredients
Mawa powder- 250 grams
(or full fat milk powder)
Milk- 1 cup
Sugar- 1 cup
Cardamom- 3-4
Ghee- 3 tbs
Sliced almond or pistachios-  to garnish



Make a fine powder of sugar and cardamom and set aside.
In a heavy bottom melt butter and add milk and mawa powder/milk powder. Mix well till it well combines and there is no lumps. Keep stirring in low flame for two to three minutes.
Into this add powdered sugar and cardamon and mix. The mixture will start to loosen a bit, but it will soon thicken and come together.
Continue to stir till it leaves the edges of the pan and can be shaped into a ball.
Transfer the mixture into a greased tray and spread evenly. Sprinkle chopped nuts and press down with the back of a spoon.Let it cool down completely and then refrigerate for 4-5 five hours so that it becomes firm and you can cut into desired shapes.

Kerala Black Halwa/ Karutha Halwa/ Rice Flour Halwa

Kerala Black Halwa/ Karutha Halwa/ Rice Flour Halwa December has finally arrived and it means it is almost Christmas time! How many of you look forward to the Season of Joy! My birthday also comes in December, so it is a double celebration for me :) How is the Christmas planning coming along for everyone? It is exactly three weeks for Christmas and I am planning to share a few recipes for the holidays this year. This is the first one I wanted to share with all of you -Kerala style sweet delicacy- a real nostalgia, the Black Halwa. Halwas has always amazed me with its simplicity, unique texture and taste.

Murgh Chukandar/Beetroot Chicken

Murgh Chukandar/Beetroot Chicken Murgh Chukandar is a tasty chicken curry with wonderful natural bright red color. This color is from beetroot as the name suggests- chukandar means beets in Hindi and Urdu. You can also make with gosht/mutton. I am not sure about the origin of this recipe but it is popular in Northern India and Punjab and it is made during cold winter months. I love recipes with beetroot,but never thought of adding to meat. Beetroot has an earthiness and sweetness to it which complements with the flavor of earthy spices and kick from the chilies.The bonus is its beautiful vibrant color. This chicken curry has the right balance of sweet,sour,heat and flavor and was beyond what I expected. This humble chicken curry when paired with rice and naan gives you the satisfaction of homey comfort food. Beetroot is a super food and is a great source of iron and folate. It is said to purify blood and reduce blood pressure. It also contains nitrates,magnesium and oth...
