Poha Burfi is a low-fat version of Khoa (dried whole milk) Burfi. This burfi is very simple and quick to make as the ingredients are readily available at home. In this recipe, I have used thin poha due to non-availability of thick Poha. Using thick poha may give a better texture to this burfi.
Ingredients :
For Poha Burfi
1 tbspn Ghee
2 cups thin rice flakes (flattened rice/Poha)
1 cup Milk
3 tbspns Sugar
1 tbspn chopped cashew nut
1/2 tspn cardamom powder
1 tspn Milk masala
For Garnishing :
Milk Masala
Ghee for greasing the plate
Method :
Take Poha into Colander. Wash and rinse gently under running water. Drain the water and keep aside for 5 minutes.
Heat ghee in a non-stick pan. Add rice flakes in the pan and cook it for 7-8 minutes or till the poha starts changing colour. Then add milk and stir for 5 minutes. Then add Sugar and chopped cashew nuts. Keep stirring till the mixture is thick. Switch off the flame and add cardamom powder and milk masala. Mix it well.
Now grease a deep plate with ghee. Pour the burfi mixture into it. Spread it evenly in the plate with the help of a flat cup or spoon. Sprinkle some milk masala over it. Allow it to cool for some time. Then cut it into desired shape and serve immediately.
Notes :
1. If you are using thick Poha then quantity of milk may have to be increased.
2. Sugar can be substituted with sugar free powder
