2 cups coconut milk

1 cup cashews

1 cup very finely grated coconut

3/4 cup sugar

This is all, these are the only ingredients we need to make this delicious dessert.

Method:-

Firstly take a bowl and soak the cashews in good quantity of water for 10 to 15 minutes..

To make nariyal kaju barfi the most important thing we need is, coconut milk..you can easily make coconut milk at home..so let’s make it😊..Take small pieces of fresh coconut, like around 3 cups..grind it well..then add 1 cup water and grind it again really well…then stain the coconut milk using a thin and fresh cotton cloth by squeezing it tighy..Now grind the same coconut by adding 1/2 cup water again..repeat the process by adding less quantity of water until it becomes 2 cups of milk..

After extracting the milk,keep the squeezed coconut into a bowl..Now grind the soaked cashews into a paste like texture..

Simply take a pan..add coconut milk and grated coconut into it..grated in the sense, not really you have to grate it differently..put the one we used to extract coconut milk..now mix well..keep stirring in medium flame.. as soon as it starts to boil..add the cashew paste..mix well again..keep stirring until it becomes semi thick in texture and the milk dries up..Now add the sugar..stir well..higher the flame a bit and keep stirring because as soon as you put sugar to any dessert it becomes sticky..So stir the mixture using a spatula until it takes a thick pudding like texture..

Now grease a container with a little butter , also you can use a still plate.. pour all the mixture into it and pat the spatula lightly for spreading it a bit to make barfi..you can have it hot as soon as its ready or you can keep it overnight to make barfi..cut into pieces and enjoy the yum..It’s delicious.👍👍

Garnish with some chopped cashews on top👍👍
