Naral Wadi
[Coconut Wadi]
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Shredded coconut
- 1 cup milk
- 1 & ¼ cup Sugar
- Cardamom powder
- Saffron strands
- 5 drops yellow food color
- Few almonds for garnishing
Method:1. Add coconut, milk, saffron, food color and sugar in a thick bottom kadhai and cook it on medium heat. Stir it continuously.2. Stir it till it forms a lump and slightly dry from the sides. The consistency is important. Remove from fire.
3. Add cardamom powder. Mix well.
4. Apply ghee to a plate and pour the coconut fudge in to a plate greased with little ghee and pat it evenly. Garnish it with grated almonds.
5. While it’s still hot, cut into diamond shaped pieces but do not remove from plate. Allow it to cool and set.
6. It will come out unstuck from the plate easily when cooled down. 
Tip: - While mixing it in Kadhai you can take out small portion of it on hand and roll it, from that you can check the consistency of the mixture.
Thanks for the recipe Anjali! I will try it today as have fresh coconut at home today :-)
ReplyDeletemine became very dry what can be the reason?
ReplyDeleteIf you have followed the same process given above with the exact quantity mentioned it will not turn dry. Add little quantity milk and sugar to reduce the dryness. Also instead of that you can add 1tsp of pure ghee also to reduce the dryness.

ReplyDeletei had to make coconut wadi for my daughter(10yrs).and i didn't know the procedure.now i can make.
I tried to make it with Mango Pulp but its not getting firm. I kept it on flame for long time but no use.
ReplyDeleteHi Supriya,
ReplyDeleteYes you can try with Mango pulp or fresh Mango juice but should add very little amount of it. When you add pulp quantity of milk needs to be reduced in that proportion. Try to add some sugar or kaju badam powder or shredded coconut it might help firming.
