Ingredients For Suji/Rava Ki Barfi

• 1 cup (200g) suji/rava/semolina
• 2 ½ cup (360ml) milk
• 1 ½ cup (300g) sugar
• ¾ cup (72g) almond flour/ badam ka powder
• 4 tablespoon ghee/ clarified butter
• ½ teaspoon elachai/cardamom powder
• 10-12 almonds roughly chopped
• 10-12 pistachios roughly chopped

Main Equipments Used

• Heavy bottom pan – I use the Prestige Granite 3-pcs set. You can find it on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/2Q0OMu6
• Induction cooktop – I use Morphy Richards 1600 Watt Cooktop. You can find it on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/2Jkn4px

Steps In Making

1. In a heavy bottom pan add ghee and once it melts add rava/suji in it.
2. Roast the rava on medium flame for 2-3 minutes. It will turn slight golden brown in colour and leave an aromatic smell. Switch off the flame and keep it aside.
3. In another pan add milk and bring it to a boil.
4. Add the roasted rava/suji in the milk and and while stirring it continuously cook for another 3-4 minutes on medium flame.
5. Now add almond powder and cardamom powder and cook for 8-10 minutes. The suji barfi mixture will begin to thicken up.
6. Now add sugar and while stirring it continuously, cook till the sugar melts completely.
7. Add the cardamom powder and cook till the liquid is absorbed completely. It will start to separate from the pan and form a ball like structure.
8. Now add a teaspoon of ghee and roast for couple of minutes.
9. Take a plate/tray and grease it with ghee and pour the suji barfi mixture and spread it evenly.
10. Garnish with chopped almonds and pistachios and press it with the back of a spoon or spatula. Let it rest for an hour or till it sets completely.
11. Cut in square or desired shapes and serve.
12. Store in an airtight container for upto 10 days in refrigerator.

Recipe Notes For Suji/Rava Ki Barfi

• Use the fine rava for this recipe and not the thicker one.
• Make sure the milk is completely absorbed and the barfi mixture is thick before you set it in the tray.
• If you dont have almond powder you can replace it with coconut or cashew powder too.
