Kaju Katli (Cashew Fudge)

kaju katli

Kaju Katli or cashew burfi is a hot favorite with everyone alike.

Before trying making it at home, I had never imagined it was so simple to make. We would always buy it from a local sweet shop, since all of us are so fond of it.

Here is a simple badam katli or badam burfi recipe for you.

Remember, almonds benefit health in more ways than one, unlike cashews that raise bad cholesterol and fats.

Simultaneously, make sugar syrup, with water and sugar. Bring the sugar syrup to a boil on low flame.
When it starts boiling & bubbling up, keep stirring.
Switch off the flame once the syrup reaches one string consistency.
