- 100 grams sugar, ½ cup sugar
- ¼ cup water
- 1 teaspoon rose water or ¼ to ½ teaspoon cardamom
powder/chotti elaichi powder.
- 6 to 7 rose petals (optional)
how to make the recipe:
roasting & grinding:
1.
Heat a pan first. Then
add ½ cup almonds.
2.
Roast the almonds on low
flame by stirring for a minute or so
3.
Then add ½ cup whole
cashews.
4.
Roast almonds and
cashews together for couple of minutes on low flame. Switch off the flame and
remove the pan and keep on the counter. Please ensure that both the almonds and
cashews are roasted lightly and not burnt or turned brown. Now allow the Almond
or Badam and kaju or Cashew cool down at room temperature. We can cool them in
the same pan or transfer them to a plate/tray to let them cool.
5.
When the almonds and
cashews cool down, add them in a grinder jar or coffee grinder. Also add 6 to 7
dried rose petals (optional). Using the pulse option, grind and check. Grind
them together for few seconds and check We will get fine dry powder out of it Please
check that the oil does not get released from the almonds and cashews. So do
make sure you don’t over do the grinding process as oil should not release from
the almonds and cashews. Some coarse bits of both almonds and cashews are fine.
If you want, then you can also sieve the ground powder and keep aside. Use a
medium fine sieve and not a fine one to sieve the powdered almonds &
cashews. Keep aside.
6.
Grease the back of a
baking tray or back of a plate or a rolling board evenly with some oil. You can
use sunflower oil. You can also grease with ghee if you want.
Preparing katli mixture:
1.
Take ½ cup sugar and ¼
cup water in a thick bottomed pan or kadai.
2.
Also add 1 teaspoon rose
water. You can also add ¼ to ½ teaspoon cardamom powder instead of rose water.
3.
Now allow this to simmer
on a low flame and after few seconds sugar will get dissolved in the water..
Stir with a spatula, so that the sugar gets dissolved in water. The sugar syrup
should be consistent. string. Just let the sugar dissolve in the water and then
proceed with the next step.
4.
When the sugar
completely dissolves in the water, then add the almond-cashew powder.
5.
Begin to mix and stir
the mixture on a low flame.
6.
Keep on stirring the
mixture while its cooking. As you keep stirring, the lumps will break and get
dissolved.
7.
The mixture would start
thickening and almost come together. It will also leave the sides of the pan. When
it starts coming together in one form and clings to itself, then its time to
remove it. The dough will also look like a very very soft dough. Another way of
checking is taking a small piece of the dough and form into a ball. The ball
should not stick to your fingers and be smooth.
8.
Place the entire almond
cashew dough on a work surface or a plate or bowl. Don’t even bother to scrape
the edges from the pan, as they are chewy. Let this mixture cool down a bit,
till you can handle the heat while kneading it.
Kneading, rolling and
slicing:
1.
Then rub your palms
generously with oil and begin to knead the mixture while its still hot.
Alternatively, you can also add 2 to 3 teaspoons oil to the dough and then knead.
2.
Knead the dough lightly.
Do not knead it too much so as to avoid getting it moist by the oil that is
released by it.ews. Remember the dough should be hot while kneading. If you
feel the dough is too soft then you can add one teaspoon of milk powder. If the
dough looks dry or dense, add a teaspoon of milk to soften it.
3.
Flatten the dough and
place it on the greased plate or tray or a large butter paper. Roll it when it
is warm, otherwise it gets difficult to roll once it is cool and hard.
4.
Gently roll a bit with a
rolling pin to make it slightly even.
5.
To smoothen the top,
place butter paper or aluminium foil on top and roll more. This will smoothen
the top and the badam kaju katli will have a smooth appearance. You can also
roll the dough by placing it between two butter papers.
6.
Roll to get a thickness
of about 3 to 5 mm. Let the rolled almond-cashew dough cool completely.
7.
Once cooled completely,
slice the almond-cashew dough into squares or diamond shapes.
8.
Using a butter knife
gently remove the badam kaju katli pieces from the bottom, taking care that
they do not break.
9.
Remove and arrange badam
kaju katli on a plate. Serve badam kaju katli immediately or store them in air
tight container.
