Rava Barfi or sooji barfi is something that Ma used to make when we were kids. Mostly she used to make it in the evenings when we all come back home after playing outside for hours to have it with milk/complan/tea. Ma used to make them without dry fruits like pista/almond. It was very simple and very soft to eat having beautiful barfi shape she used to give with her long knife. I have tried to make this last weekend and it came out nice. Though not soft like ma's..
Ingredients:
Rava or sooji : 1/2 cup
Sugar: 1 1/2 Cups
Hot boiled milk: 2 cups
Cardamom powder - 1 pinch and a little more
Ghee to roast the rava
Almond: 2-3 tbsp roasted and crushed
Saffron - 5-6 strips
Few grated almonds for garnishing.
Method:
In a hot pan put ghee. Add the rava and stir continuously and slowly in low flame until the colour changes to little brown. Then add the sugar , crushed almonds, cardamom powder and give all the ingredients a nice mix for about 5-7mins. While boiling the milk in another pan , add few strips of saffron to the milk to give a nice colour and flavour. Now pour the hot milk into the rava mix keeping the flame low. Stir them well for another 3 -4 mins in medium flame. Once mixture gets thickened and takes a body put the flame off and transfer the mixture into a tray. Spread them evenly and sprinkle grated almonds over it. Now keep the tray in the refrigerator to set for an hour or so. Once it is set, cut into desired barfi shapes/square shape and serve .
