Notes

 Notes
If syrup is not right consistency Burfi can become very soft or very dry, in any case it is easy to fix.
Burfi is too soft: add little more almond powder or coconut powder. May be make them in ladoo a ball shape little smaller then golf ball and roll them in almond or coconut powder.
Burfi is very dry: sprinkle hot water as needed about 2-3 tablespoons over Burfi and mix it.
