Mango Barfi

Making Mango Barfi can be back-breaking work if you do not know the right shortcuts such as this!



Using readymade khoya and mango pulp makes the job simpler and faster, as you do not have to cook the milk for hours.

This recipe enables you to make Mango Barfi in around 20 minutes, but you need to plan in the setting time of eight hours, so prepare it well in advance of when you need it.

Plus, remember to add the alum although we are preparing this with khoya rather than fresh milk, because alum imparts a nice, crumbly texture to the barfi.
