I have likewise added new natural rose from my overhang garden in the kaju katli recipe. This is absolutely discretionary and you can simply skip it.

On the off chance that you incline toward you might add rose water or saffron. In any case there are no flavorings included this kaju katli recipe. The somewhat sweet, delightfully nutty kind of the cashews truly sparkles in this treat.

Step by step instructions to Make Kaju Katli guidelines for making totally sweet, liquefy in-your-mouth Indian cashew fudge.

Powder Cashews
1. Place 1 cup cashews (kaju) in a dry processor or espresso processor or blender. I generally keep cashews at room temperature. Consequently the cashews are dry.

Try not to involve refrigerated or frozen cashews as they will deliver dampness once ground and transform more into a cashew glue.
2. Grind the kaju to a smooth powder, ensuring you don’t over do the crushing system as fat shouldn’t let out of the cashews.

I ran the blender at a stretch first and afterward scratched the sides and ran again at spans for multiple times.

The cashews ought to be in powder structure and not become pale or rich like cashew spread.

On the off chance that there are small pieces in the cashew powder, just let it be – or you can likewise strainer the cashew powder and put away. Utilize a medium fine strainer and not a fine one to filter the powdered cashews.
Make Cashew Batter
3. Join ½ cup sugar and 5 tablespoons water in a thick lined container (or kadai or a non-stick dish).
4. Keep on low fire and allowed the sugar to disintegrate in the water. There is no consistency in the sugar syrup like one string or two string. Essentially let the sugar break down in the water and afterward continue with the following stage.
5. At the point when the sugar totally disintegrates in the water, add the cashew powder.
6. Mix and continue to mix relentless on a low fire. In the event that there are irregularities, break the protuberances as you mix and keep on blending. This reliable blending is the key for a smooth and even kaju katli mixture.
7. The blend will thicken and begin meeting up to shape an exceptionally delicate batter. Then the time has come to eliminate the entire chunk of the blend from the container and put it on a work surface. This course of making the kaju katli batter took me precisely 8 minutes on a low fire.

Contingent upon your temperature, container and so on you can utilize a period of time of 7 to 9 minutes subsequent to adding the cashew powder.
One more approach to checking is taking a little piece of the mixture and structure into a ball. The ball shouldn’t adhere to your fingers and be smooth. Try not to scratch the edges as they are tacky and chewy.

Manipulate The Mixture
8. Put the whole cashew mixture on a work surface. Add 1 teaspoon flower petals (or 1 teaspoon rose water or 8 to 9 strands of saffron) and 1 tablespoon ghee or coconut oil. The expansion of flower petals and coconut oil or ghee are discretionary.

The mixture will be exceptionally hot, so let it rest briefly until sufficiently hot to contact. At the point when the intensity is sufficient to deal with start to massage the mixture.
9. Massage the mixture softly, smooth it and put it on a lubed plate or plate. Try not to exaggerate manipulating as this will set fat free from the cashews. The grainy surface in the mixture disappears as you ply it. Recollect the batter ought to hot while manipulate.

You can likewise apply some oil or ghee on your palms as opposed to adding ghee/oil independently. On the off chance that the batter looks excessively delicate, add a teaspoon of some dried milk powder. In the event that the batter looks dry or thick add a teaspoon of milk to relax it.
10. You can likewise put it on an enormous piece of material or margarine paper. The cashew batter ought to in any case be very warm when you begin moving it. As it cools it will solidify more and afterward becomes challenging to roll, so work rapidly!

Delicately roll the kaju barfi batter with a moving pin to make it even. There will be fine breaks in the batter.

11. To smoothen the breaks, put material paper on top and roll more. This will fill in the breaks and the kaju barfi will have a smooth completion.
12. Roll to get a thickness of around 3 to 5 mm (about ⅛ inch). Then, at that point, let the moved cashew batter cool.

Make Kaju Katli
13. Once cooled totally, cut the cashew mixture into squares or precious stone shapes. Scratch off the lopsided edges and appreciate as a little nibble as you work.
14. I suggest that you utilize a spread blade to delicately eliminate the kaju barfi pieces from the lower part of the plate or paper, taking consideration that they don’t break.
15. Organize them on a plate each in turn as you go. Serve kaju katli or kaju barfi immediately, or store them in a sealed shut compartment.

Let me tell you, kaju katli will be your new favorite treat. Make a batch for any festive occasion or just as a fun and delicious project. ❤️
