Alphonso Mango & Coconut Barfi

Ingredients:

• 2 cups grated coconut (made from one large coconut)
• 25g Mango Powder 
• 1 cup sugar 
• 1/2 tsp ghee
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar for setting

Directions:

1. Mix sugar with grated coconut and let it rest for 5 minutes. 
2. Grease a tray and plastic bag / glove with ghee and keep it aside for later.
3. Add 1/2 tsp ghee to a kadhai / pan. 
4. Pour in coconut and sugar mixture; keep it on a low-medium flame. 
5. Stir continuously until sugar melts.
6. Add mango powder and cook stirring until aromatic.
