carrot burfi recipe

Carrot burfi recipe is a very delicious melt in the mouth sweet. You can even try this sweet with more coconut like here replacing beets with carrots too.

Carrot barfi or gajar barfi is a very easy to make sweet.If you have grated carrots in hand this sweet can be made in flat 15 mins.

I tried this carrot barfi  with my own measures.Till I cut them into pieces I was not at all confident about how the carrot burfi is going to turn out. But after cutting when I tasted the extra bits I was flying yes the barfi was melting in the mouth.Everyone at home tasted and said the same too including the mini who said amma chweet chooper it seems 🙂 I was really happy that my sweet experiment is a success 🙂

I was badly waiting for mittu to return back from school to taste it yesterday, to my surprise she just loved it so much and asked for more..Yayy for that.She had 3 at one go which is very very rare in her case as she is very choosy even in sweets unlike me 😉

Carrot burfi recipe

Carrot burfi recipe with the addition of milkpowder and coconut. 
Prep Time15 mins
Cook Time15 mins
Total Time30 mins
Servings12 pieces
AuthorSharmilee J

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup grated carrot (tightly packed)
  • 1/4 cup grated coconut (loosely packed)
  • 3 tbsp ghee
  • 1/4 cup milk powder
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cardamom powder

Instructions

  • First grease a tray with ghee and keep it ready.Get ready with all the ingredients,measure and set aside.First add ghee,carrot and coconut to a pan.
  • Saute for few mins until raw smell of carrots leave.This will take atleast 7-10mins in low flame.Add milk powder and sugar.
  • Keep cooking in low flame.First the sugar will melt and the mixture will turn runny.Keep cooking and keep stirring.
  • Add cardamom powder. It will start to form bubbles first and will start to leave the sides of the pan when you stir.
  • Keep cooking and stirring until you see the mixture turn frothy.When it starts froth pour the mixture into the tray level it with a flat bottomed bowl and leave it undisturbed for 5 mins.
  • When it is still warm, cut with a greased knife and mark pieces.After it cools down you can easily take out the pieces.

Notes

    • If you leave the consistency then you will not get pieces, it will be dry and become a coarse mixture.If you remove a bit before then it will be like halwa so be careful while checking the consistency.
    • The whole mixture should leave the sides of the pan and should be nicely frothy while stirring, this is the right stage to switch off and immediately pour on a tray and level it else it will start to crumble.
    • The burfis are soft melt in the mouth texture but firm to look and hold.
    • If you prefer add ghee fried nuts.I didn't add nuts.
    • I was little doubtful so added little coconut but guess it can be replaced with extra grated carrot itself, will try it that way and update here.
    • This burfi doesnt give volume because the carrots shrink.If you add more coconut it will give more volume.
