• Add sugar and ½ cup water in a pan. Cook sugar until it melts. Take little amount of sugar in a plate and check whether it has two thread consistency or not.
• Add besan in the sugar syrup and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add cashew nuts and cardamom powder as well. Check whether it has thick consistency or not.
• Grease any plate or tray with ghee. Pour the besan mixture and spread it evenly on the plate. Sprinkle pistachios on the surface of the Burfi. Press them slightly so that they get set in the mixture. Keep the Burfi for freezing for 1-2 hours.
