Besan Coconut Burfi

The recipe is traditionally called a seven cup cake or the seven heaven cake because of three cups of sugar and 1 each of other 4 ingredients, making it easy to remember. However, in my experience, 2 cups of sugar is more than enough for our generation's sweet tooth. And even my grandparents are quite happy with that :)

Earl Grey Scones for the airfryer Earl Grey Scones for the airfryer
I was searching the internet one day and found this recipe. Converted it to ml and my family loved it. There is nothing I love more than to eat scones in the summer. But no one likes to heat up the home. I love my airfryer for this reason. I also have a confession sometimes I mess up the butter measurements and add way more than I should. Like 1 cup instead of half. What can I say, I am not a chef or a baker and found adding more butter was actually tastier and moister scone. Oopsy baking everyone. Katatonickat -

Carrot Burfi is a delectable North Indian sweet dish. Made with grated carrots,ghee & dry fruits. This recipe is loved by people of all age groups.The recipe is similar to gajar Halwa. The only difference is you just need to cook the carrots for some more time that what we cook for gajar halwa so that sugar cooks more and the Burfi sets after cooling.# FoH#FavouriteRecipe#Post_No.1#Carrot BurfiI made this dish on the occasion of Ganesh chaturthi and enjoyed this carrot Burfi with my friends and family.Debanita Ghosh
