1 Review of Besan Burfi (Sweet Gram Flour Squares)

I'm giving this 4 stars because the flavor is absolutely wonderful. I cannot give 5 stars, because the directions are very unclear in my opinion. I wasnt sure how long to actually "boil" the sugar mixture until a thick syrup forms. I wasnt sure how thick it should be, because no time approximation was given at all. I wasnt sure what the consistency was suppose to be like when i removed it from the pan into the dish I greased, and I believe subsequently I ended up overcooking it, so when i put it into the greased dish, I had to press it into the dish, and when cutting right after, it became quite crumbly. It tastes fabulous, but Im sure it didnt come out exactly as it should have. If the directions were a bit more clear, Im sure I would have managed to get it correct the first time around. I will attempt this again, but would really appreciate some clarity Thanks for the recipe.
