My First Post - Badam Katli

This is my first blog post. Even though my work is different, my best hobby is cooking. I love cooking. I used to cook different recipes and try different recipes. My lifetime aim is to become best cook. What ever I do, I only test with my husband ;) . He is the main person who encourage me in doing different recipe. After long time he finally decided and opened this blog for me.

As we discussed what could be the first recipe I can post, we decided Badam Katli which I have done yesterday for my friends over here. I made it yesterday for very first time. I didn't expect it will come so good. All my friends were happy that it was too good as sweet house one.

As a deepavali special I am posting this recipe. I need all your support to continue my blog posting:).


Ingredients :

Badam               - 1 cup
Sugar                - 1 cup
Milk                   - 1 cup
Ghee                  - 2 table spoon

Steps to make home made Badam Katli :

1. Soak Badam in hot water for 1/2 an hour.
2. Peel off the skin and grind it in mixer with milk and sugar.
3. In big non-stick kadai, add ghee and pour the fine paste.
4. Stir it on medium flame until moisture evaporates.
5. To check whether cooking is completed, take a small portion and roll over on hand. It should not be sticky and you will get nice ball.
6. At this stage switch off the flame and transfer it to a flat ghee applied plate, so that it would not stick into the plate.
7. Now apply little ghee on hand and press slowly to spread the katli as a square one. To make it easy, roll the entire stuff with  chappathi roller make medium thick square shape katli as shown below. Thickness can be of your wish, which can vary from 1/4 inch.


8. After half an hour, cut with knife in diamond shape.
9. Allow to cool for another half an hour after separating it.
10. This katli will stay for a week when you keep it outside in room temperature.
