FAQS
How do I ensure the jaggery syrup reaches the correct consistency?
The jaggery syrup should reach a one-string consistency. To test this, take a small amount of syrup between your thumb and forefinger. When you pull them apart, a single string should form.
Can I use sugar instead of jaggery?
Yes, you can substitute sugar for jaggery. However, jaggery adds a unique flavor and nutritional value to the burfi. If using sugar, adjust the quantity to match the sweetness level of jaggery.
How do I store the Peanut Milk Burfi?
Store the Peanut Milk Burfi in an airtight container at room temperature. It should stay fresh for up to a week.
Can I add any other nuts to this recipe?
Yes, you can add other nuts like cashews or almonds for added flavor and texture. Roast and grind them along with the peanuts.
Why is my burfi too soft or too hard?
If the burfi is too soft, it could be because the jaggery syrup was not cooked to the correct consistency. If it's too hard, you might have overcooked the syrup. Ensure you cook it to a one-string consistency for the best results.
