Mango burfi recipe with step by step pictures

 

mango burfi

 

Mango burfi is a super delicious treat for mango lovers. My version of mango burfi is smooth, rich and creamy which melts in your mouth.  My hubby is big mango lover so I always try new mango recipes to gratify him but today’s recipe which I am sharing is to celeberate my blog’s 1st anniversary. Yes on this very day Rachna’s Kitchen was seeded and it has completed one year on 14th of July 2014.

I would like to thank each reader for constant support, encouraging words and wishes.

Now over to this recipe.

mango peda recipe

 

In this mango burfi recipe I have kept the ingredients simple. This mango burfi requires few ingredients which are mango puree, sugar, milk powder and paneer. That’s it. For decoration I have used pistachios and silver, golden leaves. The paneer I have used is homemade but store bought will also work. I have made some peda out of the same mixture and they looked gorgeous. It’s a personal choice that what shape you want to give. Let’s see the recipe now !!

    Any tips on how to fix it if the mixture refuses to thicken even after half an hour of stirring? I’m not sure what went wrong, but I now have a huge bowl of liquid “barfi” =D Thank you!

      Hi Meena ,
      Sad to hear that. For Burfi, it’s better to add more sugar. Another thing u can try, cook mango puree on low flame to take out the moisture. I think it is moisture which is not allowing burfi to set. Now, as you said, you have liquid burfi so I would recommend to add little more milk powder and try to make out peda from it, so that it doesn’t get waste. Hope this helps.

    What kind of silver and gold leaf do you use and can you taste it? I want to make this for my Pakistani Doctor I work with. I have homemade canned mangos. Do you think they would work if I drained the juice? Thanks for the recipe I can’t wait to try it

      Hi Karen,
      These silver and golden leaf I have used are edible but tasteless. These are generally available in any Indian groceries store, I bought from sainsburys. You can use canned mangoes puree for it but I thinks you have to cook puree for longer to adjust consistency. Try it and I hope it turns delicious for you.

    This looks amazing ! can you tell me- will the final texture be soft or more on the firmer side ?

      June 13, 2017 at 4:47 pm

      Hi Aisha,
      The final texture should be little firmer ( like if you smooth the mixture with the back of spoon mixture should not stick to spoon) should not s not very soft. Also I have updated the recipe. Will post video soon.
      Thanks

    Nice looking burfi. One Question, Paneer is what is sold in the grocery store by the name “Paneer’ or it is Khoya? and can I use cottage cheese instead?

    Reply
    • rachnaskitchen says

      July 7, 2017 at 9:01 am

      Hi Rumi,
      Paneer is home made cheese and khoya is condensed form of milk. You can’t use cottage cheese (European style) in this recipe because it is sour and much liquid. I will recommend you to use paneer or khoya. Khoya would work in place of paneer.
      Try it and share your experience. All the best.

    I love this barfi. However when i made it , the paneer would not melt in the mango puree, The barfi looks white grainy,though it set perfect. I used store bought frozen paneer, put it in warm water till it soften to crumble.How to know the paneer will melt in the puree or not??. I am disappointed but want to try again. Thank you.

      Hi,
      I have used homemade paneer in this recipe. You may use homemade paneer or chena which is used for making rasgulla. Still if you want to use store bought, so first grind it in a grinder then use it. Hope this helps.
