Burfi Badam Pista (milk, Almond And Pistachio Nut Toffee)

Why has God chosen to work through persevering prayer? 1. To purify our desires. Sometimes we may want the right thing for the wrong reasons. 2. To prepare us for His answer. A premature answer might cause us to glory more in the gift than in the Giver. 3. To develop our life and character. We have already stated that one of God’s greatest priorities in prayer is the work He desires to do in us. 4. To be used of God in spiritual warfare. Although we are not told a great bit of detail about the exact nature of the angelic conflict in the heavenlies, we are told enough to be assured of the reality of it. 5. To bless us with a more intimate relationship with God. An aspect of delighting in a person is delighting in conversing with them. The joy of fellowship with a prized person is the greatest treasure.

INGREDIENTS

9	oz	Khoa, see directions
3	oz	Castor sugar
1	oz	Almonds
2		Kewra essence or 1 drop
		itar kewra
1/2	oz	Pistachio nuts
4		Silver leaves, optional

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare khoa (dried fresh whole milk) by boiling 2 pints Jersey milk
or 960 mls buffalo milk briskly in a heavy pan (karahi). Stir all the
time until it dries up (takes about half an hour) and see that the
fire burns well, as slow heating turns the khoa creamy in colour. The
finished product should be white if properly prepared. Keep aside and
allow it to cool.  Add castor sugar (or substitute powdered sugar) to
khoa and mix  thoroughly. Then cook for 10 minutes, taking care not to
let the  mixture stick to the bottom. Mix minced almonds and
pistachios; stir  for 2 to 3 seconds, remove from the heat and allow it
to cool; add  kewra essence or the itar.  Invert a thali or a tray and
grease its back; put the mixture over it  and roll out as neat and aas
straight as possible. Decorate with  silver leaves. When it cools down
and becomes firm, cut into diamond  pieces. Keep in an air-tight tin.
