Steps

1

Method
In a non-stick pan, add ghee and roast the gram flour till the raw smell goes completely.
The colour of the mixture should turn slightly golden brown and you should get some heavenly smell of the roasted flour.
The mixture should not be too dry, so add more ghee if required.
2

The amount of ghee each brand of besan takes is different.
Now add the powdered sugar and give a good mix.
After 2 mins, remove from heat and add cardamon powder.
Remove the mixture into a greased plate, and while it's hot press the mixture using the back of a spoon
Sprinkle the slivered almonds and saffron and press lightly.
3

Mark the squares using a sharp knife.
Once the mixture sets then it's difficult to cut into pieces.
Allow the burfis to cool completely before removing it from the plate.
