BURFI -ALL PURPOSE FLOUR

1 c. all purpose flour                  1/2 c. water
2 c. melted butter                      1 drop food coloring
2 c. sugar

Mix flour with 1/2 cup melted butter and make a pastry. On a skillet over medium heat, mix 2 cups of sugar with 1/2 cup of water and make a syrup. When the syrup comes to the consistency of a thread, add the paste and a drop of food coloring. Keep on stirring and add the rest of the melted butter over it until it becomes soft and of a thicker consistency (about 15 minutes). Spread on a greased pan. When cool, cut it into small squares. Makes into 30 pieces. In the place of all purpose flour you can also use gram flour to make the gram flour burfi.
