7 cups Burfi

It took me a while before i could get a hang of making burfi's. Though the consistency of the burfi would be fine, i would always get confused when to stop stirring and when i should take it of flame. I wouldn't have the heart to throw it so i would just make round balls of the same and eat them :D.


After a couple of attempts, i moved a step ahead and have realized when i should remove the burfi.. 7 cups is one such attempt. My mom would make it often and when i was a kid, for some strange reason i would go around telling everyone that amma doesn't know anything but 7 cups!! :(.. Poor thing! But for me she makes the best 7 cups ....
