Kaju Katli and Awards!


Ingredients:

Cashews – 1 cup
Sugar – ¾ cup or adjust according to your taste
Milk – 5 tbsp
Ghee – 5 tsp










Cooking Instructions:

Soak cashews in water for about half an hour. Then drain the excess water and grind it to a fine paste along with milk.

Add sugar in a deep pan and water little above the sugar level and bring it to a boiling consistency. Now add grinded paste and ghee slowly and mix well so that it does not form any lumps. Keep stirring it regluarly and when the paste starts to leave the sides of the pan, take a pinch of paste and let it to cool. When you are able to form ball out of that paste, switch off the stove.




Let it to cool for a while and spread the mixture on a greased plate. Roll it out to your desired thickness and Let the mixture to cool again for about 10 minutes in that plate. Cut it in your desired shapes now and now kaju katli is ready to serve.

I rolled it out into peda shapes instead of regular diamond shapes for a change. The taste was really amazing.

Event for the Month of September and the Theme is Chicken

I thank all my blogger friends first of all, who wished for my son Amiitesh's birthday and he enjoyed a lot on that day with all my relatives and particularly during the function time. Amiitesh got up by 5.15am itself on that day and went to bed only by 11pm and he don't want to miss to play with his grand parents and uncles. He was very eager to cut the cake from the time we received it from the bakery. He looked so smart on that day and we had a blast of happiness. He was more eager to see the gift packs he received for his birthday and started playing with them immediately as soon as we unpack the gifts. And thank you all again who showered my son with their blessings.
