Mango burfi or mango fudge. The best way to add a fancy element to the juicy golden mangoes. This quick & easy recipe requires only three ingredients and is the perfect little treat to satisfy your sweet cravings. Garnished with toasted almond flakes, every bite will be more delicious than the last.
There’s no question that juicy yellow mangoes are summer’s favorite fruits. And the best part? They taste amazing in so many sweet dishes from simple grilled mangoes to lip-smacking ice creams. So, if you’re a mango lover like me, I have an amazingly delicious recipe to share with you today.
This mango burfi or fudge is made with three main ingredients - fresh mangoes, milk powder and condensed milk. Here, the bright sweet flavor of the fudge is enhanced with a light touch of ground cardamom and ghee. Together, they create a sweet treat as summery as your favorite fruit.
Let’s make this summery mango burfi
Start with mangoes. You’ll need perfectly ripe mangoes, just peel and dice to make a smooth purée. I really love the taste of Kensington pride mangoes in this burfi recipe. But, feel free to use your favorite, just make sure they are very sweet with beautiful yellow color. That way, the burfi will get a natural yellow hue without adding any artificial colors.
Bring together milk powder and condensed milk in a saucepan over low heat and cook until you get a thick paste. To this, add mango purée, ground cardamom and ghee. Continue cooking until the mixture turns thick and starts to leave the sides of the pan. Make sure you stir occasionally to prevent it from burning.
Now, you’ll need to transfer this mango burfi mixture to a rectangular or square dish to set. With the addition of toasted almond flakes, you have two options - you can either add it now or after cutting them into slices.
An amazingly sweet slice that not only uses seasonal produce but is also effortless to make.
