<h2 id="subHeadingPrintBox">

<li>Keeping stiring the mixture until sugar melts and you can see water released from coconut. </li>

leave side of pan.  Press coconut with your spatula to check if any 
water remains, if you see water then keep cooking and stirring.</li>

<li>Immediately pour mixture to greased plate and level it with 
spatula/knife or butter paper,  aluminium foil. (I did it with spatula 
as I like the rustic look)</li>

remove the pieces, invert and allow to dry.</li>

<br />
Store in air tight container. <br />
<br />
<b><i><u>Notes</u></i></b><br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Cooking time may vary due to coconut 
quality and how much moisture coconut has, so once you see there's no 
water and mixture starts to come together you can off flame.</li>
<li>For pure white burfi, don't add coconut brown skin and grate coconut avoiding it.</li>
<li>You should cook from start to end in slow to medium flame or medium flame.  If you keep in high flame coconut will change color.</li>
<li>Cut in pieces when mixture is still warm if you allow to it cool then we can't make pieces, you have to break in pieces :)</li>
<li>To have smooth finish level mixture with butter paper,  aluminium foil.  I like this kind of rustic look so I didn't do that.</li>
<li>You can add  fried gram dal (pottu kadalai) instead of cashewnuts.</li>
<li>For Vegan version, dry roast cashewnut pieces and grease tray with oil.</li>
<li>This coconut burfi stays good for almost a week on room temperture.</li>
</ul>

This easy and healthy burfi is for kids snack box too or to satisfy those sweet cravings. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I always prepare dry fruits burfi, ladoo or roll during festive season among all other traditional diwali sweets and snacks which are loaded mostly with ghee, sugar and deep fried; this easy burfi comes as great relief and option. People with sweet tooth can munch on these yummy and healthy dry fruit burfi without any worry.  When my brother saw this burfi I didn't believed this is home made, he was like it looks so elegant and taste fab :)</div>

You can add any dry fruits of your choice like other than whatever I have mentioned and if you don't have figs then just use dates it still taste very good. You can also add desiccated coconut, poppy seeds in this burfi recipe too.  Like I mentioned in Dates Sesame Ladoo post, I have used organic dates kept in room temperature, if you keep dates, anjeer (dried figs) in fridge then keep them outside a night before outside.<br />
<br />
I have used gulkand in this burfi which add amazing flavor to this burfi but if you don't have gulkand with you then you can skip that but if you can get gulkand then do try that, it's does add wonderful taste to burfi. You can also make this burfi in to ladoo and if you don't have sliver warq then you can garnish with desiccated coconut, poppy seeds too.<br />
<br />
This burfi is also good option for sharing with friends, family, guests they will love this guilt-free sweet, just pack it in a box and tie some nice lace and add 2 diya or candle along and your simple yet beautiful gift is ready to share. Try this easy dry fruit burfi and enjoy this diwali to fullest. </div>
