    I have tried ur badam burfi before it used to come out so well but this time the burfi doesn’t set … its in the same lumpy consistency inwhich state i poured it in a greased plate..how to convert it dry.. any suggestions.. I don’t want to eat like halwa… though it tastes so good

    Hi Mullai, a quick question. Can I substitute sugar with splenda in this recipe? I have gestational diabetes and want to eat sweets badly for diwali atleast. Please reply asap and also suggest a few other sweets that can be made with splenda

    1. Mullai

      Madhu,
      There’s nothing wrong in using splenda it would still be the same measure but I’m really doubtful whether it would set like burfi. Sugar substitutes usually work well with halwas and kheer and sometimes mess up with burfis. Why don’t you try badam halwa instead? Thanks.

    Dear Mullai, I tried badam burfi just now, it came out very well and even on both sides. I always try recipes from sites.

    thanks

    Dear mullai,

    Burfi is superb.great presentation..My mom used to boil the badams for some time and cool it..the skin will peel of so easily…

    Hi,
    What will happen if I use badam with the skin.I prefer always to take everything with skin on as much as possible.Thanks for your response.

    Dear Mullai

    Tried this just now.. Mouth watering .. came out so well. I could not flatten the top part well. So the pieces came out as bottom fine and top ..bit crumby.. taste wise excellent. Already I finished gobbling few small pieces in my mouth before really solidifying…

      Lakshmi, that's the problem grinding nuts at home, they never turn super fine. Adding milk is the only option. Even mine doesn't look perfect, they tend to solidify quickly and by the time you actually transfer everything (literally scraping the pot) the batter on the spatula and upper portion gets dried off. Always need an extra hand, anyways glad you like it. Now… something new is up on the admin corner, get ready to try the colourful Zunka. Thanks.

      Ron, these are not roasted, I made them with raw skin on badams. Avoid salted anyways. Roasted might give a different taste.
