Haryana Doda Barfi Condensed Milk Fudge Jaggery Haryana

Method

1. 1

   Bring 1 litre full-fat milk to a boil in a heavy non-stick pan.

2. 2

   Reduce to medium. Cook, stirring every 3 to 4 minutes, for 25 to 30 minutes until the milk has reduced to roughly 1/3 of its original volume and is thick, golden and khoya-like.

3. 3

   Add grated jaggery. Stir continuously — the mixture will initially thin as jaggery melts then thicken again.

4. 4

   Add ghee. Stir continuously on medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes until the mixture comes together and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan.

5. 5

   Add cardamom powder and dry coconut.

6. 6

   The barfi is ready when it forms a mass that does not stick to the pan sides. Remove from heat.

7. 7

   Pour onto a greased tray. Spread to 1.5 cm thickness.

8. 8

   Press crushed almonds on top while still hot.

9. 9

   Cool 30 minutes until set. Cut into rough squares.
