About Badam Rava Burfi
To make Badam Rava Burfi, we need only a few ingredients. This burfi resembles Suji Halwa, and the taste is almost the same but in a different way. Halwa is mostly made with Suji, and we add chopped nuts to it. But, I have made this burfi using an equal amount of Rava and ground almonds. So this Burfi is full of nutrition, and also even a small portion gives a feeling of fullness and satisfaction. My family loves Suji Halwa, and I often make it without any occasion. And this Burfi is our favorite too, so I make Halwa and this Burfi alternatively for a good change. I have already posted similar recipes, such as Sooji Halwa / Rava Sheera / Suji Ka Halwa and Milk Rava Kesari / Milk Kesari. Because we love Suji / Semolina Halwa, and so it is always hard to have portion control. But with this Burfi, you can have just one piece, and your craving will be satisfied immediately. And this burfi stays longer in the fridge, for up to 7 days. So it will be nice to devour the small bites for fewer days.🤗

Ingredients
Step-by-Step Directions
Heat Ghee in a pan.
Add Rava, mix well, and roast on low to medium heat.
Roast the Rava until lightly golden brown; it will take 8-10 minutes. Do not roast on high heat; otherwise, Rava will be burnt.
While you are roasting Rava, on the other side, take milk and saffron into a pan and bring to a boil.
Once Rava is roasted, add ground almonds and mix well. Continue roasting for two minutes. Do not roast for longer; otherwise, the almond meal will get darker in color.
Add boiled milk to Rava and almond mixture, and mix well.
Continue stirring. Milk will be absorbed within two minutes.
Add sugar, cardamom powder and mix well.
As the sugar dissolves, the mixture will become thinner again. But continue stirring, and the mixture will become thick again in a couple of minutes.
The mixture will become thick and will stop sticking to the pan. Also, it will move like a big lump when you stir. That means the Burfi mixture is ready. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly in the pan.
Grease the tray (you can use a baking pan, Thali, or any container you prefer) and line it with plastic wrap or parchment paper. Leave out enough plastic hanging over the pan’s edges, so it will be easy to lift the set Burfi.
Place the Burfi mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle chopped almonds on the top.
Place the tray into the fridge for 2-4 hours to set. Once Burfi is set, cut into the desired shape and size.
Storing Suggestions
We will need to keep this burfi set in the fridge. After slicing it into pieces, place the Burfi into an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator. Burfi will not stay at room temperature for longer. Because at room temperature, it will get softer and lose its shape. So take it out from the refrigerator when serving and put the remaining Burfi (if any) back into the fridge. We can store the Barfi in the fridge for up to seven days. Badam Rava Burfi freezes well. So for a small celebration or festival, make it ahead of time, and pack it in the freezer container. Place the container into the freezer for up to 2 months. Then thaw the Burfi overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
Helpful Tips
Semolina: I have used medium-grain semolina; you can use a fine variety of semolina if you prefer that. Make sure to roast the Rava on medium-low heat for a light golden brown color. Roasting on high heat will burn semolina and will make it darker in color. Ground Almonds: If you prefer some almond bites in your burfi, grind the almonds into a coarse powder. Garnishing: Garnish the Burfi with other choices of nuts instead of only with chopped almonds. Milk: Do not use low-fat or water instead of milk to keep the richness and creaminess of the Badam Rava Burfi.
