Walnut: 1 cup
Sugar: half cup less 2 tbsp
Water: half cup less 3 tbsp
Green Cardamom: 4-5 (skin removed and pounded)
Saffron strands: few (pounded or crushed)
Ghee: 1 tbsp
Method:
1. Ground the walnut to a smooth powder.
2. Heat sugar and water in a non-stick pan. Let a boil come and thicken the sugar syrup just less than one thread consistency. Add cardamom powder and saffron.
3. Add the walnut powder to the syrup and stir.
4. Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes and then add ghee.
5. Mix well while stirring continuously.
6. After 5-6 minutes switch off the flame.
7. The mixture will be a bit runny. Keep stirring the mixture until it starts to tighten up.
8. When the mixture becomes warm enough to be handled by hands, take it out on a plate.
9. Knead for some more time. A dough will be formed.
10. Grease a plate and roll out this mixture with the help of a rolling pin keeping the thickness around ½ to ¾ cm.
11. Let it cool for few more minutes. Then make cut marks as per your choice.
12. Once completely cooled take out the pieces and store in an airtight container.
13. Yummy “Akhrot Barfi” is ready.
Tips:
1. Bring the walnuts to room temperature before grinding.
2. Don’t overground the walnuts otherwise the oil will get released from it.
3. Keep the flame on low always.
4. The trick to soft and yummy mithai is that we have to knead the mixture continuously with our palms.
5. The mithai can be kept for 2-3 days outside (in cold weather) and can be refrigerated for many days.
6. Do ot over cook the sugar syrup else the mithai will become hard.
See you soon with a new recipe till then Happy Cooking!!!
Walnuts or Akhrot are very healthy. In winters I enjoy eating dry fruits a lot. And the sweets made from them are just no match. Check my “Anjeer Mithai”. You will find it great.
My husband is not a big fan of walnuts. He will just have one or two and that will be sufficient for him. But the sweet made from akhrot, he enjoys eating a lot.
Let us start cooking!!!
