Start by soaking 200 grams of almonds in hot water for a chill 30 minutes. Once they've softened up, peel off their skins like you're unwrapping nature's candy, and grind those bad boys into a fine paste with a splash of water for a silky-smooth vibe.

Next, grab a heavy-bottomed pan (trust me, no flimsy pans here) and heat 200 grams of sugar with 1/4 cup of water on medium flame.

Stir it like you mean it until the sugar melts into a glossy, thick syrup. This is your sugar game going strong.

Now, invite that almond paste to the sugar syrup party and mix like it's a DJ spinning tracks—smooth and steady.

Keep the flame low and stir continuously to dodge those pesky lumps.

In another pan, melt 100 grams of ghee until it's shimmering and golden, then pour this liquid gold into your almond-sugar mix.

Stir, cook, and watch as the mixture thickens up and starts leaving the sides of the pan—it's the sign that your burfi base is ready to slay.

Meanwhile, give 50 grams of pistachios a glam makeover by finely chopping them and setting them aside for their big moment.

Grease a tray or plate with a slick of ghee (non-stick is life!) and spread the almond mixture evenly, smooting it out like a pro.
- 11
Sprinkle those chopped pistachios on top, gently pressing them down so they stick like besties.

Let your creation cool and set for 2-3 hours (the hardest part, I know). Once it's firm and fabulous, slice your badam pista burfi, serve it up, and let the compliments roll in.
