White Burfi Recipe Maida Ki Barfi

While it is one of the easiest barfi recipes, I would like to share a few tips and recommendations for the maida burfi recipe. Firstly, make sure to roast maida on low flame using ghee till it turns aromatic. Roasting helps to remove all the raw taste and flavor and also elevates the taste of the barfi. Secondly, you need to stir the barfi mixture continuously. There is no shortcut for it and it can be overwhelming, perhaps. Make sure to stir the maida mixture till you get a thick flowing consistency. Lastly, once the barfi mixture attains a flowing silky consistency, it has to be immediately transferred to shaping mold. Cooking further can lead to hard and brittle which also may be a problem for shaping and cutting.
