Can I skip milk powder?
I would recommend milk powder for the perfect soft melt-in-mouth burfi.
How long should I grind Cashews?
grinding cashews with milk powder and sugar helps for oil free grinding. If you are doubtful you can pulse a few times ; mix well then grind
Should I USE powdered SUGAR?
No, you use regular sugar and grind. Avoid grinding the sugar separately, I have used regular sugar but you can use any variety of sugar; taste might vary accordingly
Can I use milk?
Yes but shelf life will be less
CAN I REDUCE SUGAR?
Yes, adjust according to your taste.
Is ghee enough ?
Yes, katli doesn’t require much ghee. This quantity is enough for binding
can I use cardamom powder?
Yes, you can use water to make cashew katli. Ghee and water give different tastes and textures to the kaju barfi.
Can I use cardamom powder?
Yes, you can skip kewra water. Add rose essence, or any other flavor according to your choice.
Can I use milk instead of ghee?
Milk will reduce shelf life. I would recommend water/ghee for longer shelf life.
Can I cut the cashew fudge Immediately?
no, always refrigerate till it is set. I generally keep it for 45 mins.
Should I refrigerate the cashew fudge?
I would recommend refrigerating to retain the best taste and texture.
