Instructions

Prepare the Nuts

Soak the almonds and cashews in hot water for 1.5 hours. Drain and peel the almonds.

Make the Nut Paste and Sugar Syrup

Blend the blanched almonds and cashews into a smooth paste with the milk using a high-speed blender or food processor. In a separate saucepan, combine sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until a one-string consistency syrup forms. Add the crushed cardamom pods to the syrup.

Combine and Cook

Gradually add the almond-cashew paste to the hot sugar syrup, stirring continuously to prevent sticking. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the mixture thickens considerably and starts to leave the sides of the pan.

Set and Cut

Grease a shallow tray with ghee or butter. Pour the cooked burfi mixture into the prepared tray and spread it evenly. Let it cool completely at room temperature before cutting into desired shapes.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Badam & Kaju Burfi

For an extra rich flavor, toast the almonds and cashews lightly in a dry pan before soaking.
Use a candy thermometer to monitor the syrup's consistency for accurate results. The one-string consistency is crucial for proper burfi setting.
If the mixture becomes too thick while cooking, add a tablespoon of warm milk or water at a time to adjust the consistency.
For easier cutting, chill the burfi in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cutting.
