Lentil Flour Burfi for Lord Krishna's birthday


A simple and quick dessert for Krishna's birthday.

Gokulashtami/Krishna Jayanthi was supposed to be yesterday but I could celebrate it only today.

I tried this Lentil flour burfi for the first time. This is only a trial version as I am preparing to make a larger quantity for another occasion.

Results: Although it tastes good, it needed to be less like halwa and more like Mysore pah or maybe somewhere in between. So, I placed the tray inside the refrigerator for an hour. The consistency turned out perfect.
