Instructions

Grease or line the tray to be used for setting the fudge , keep aside. In a non stick wok, or a heavy bottom pan, heat up 1 tbsp ghee and add the scrapped Coconut to it.
Stir fry the Coconut in the ghee on a low to medium flame until it dries up and we get a nice aroma. Now add the fresh cream and mix well and cook the mixture until the scrapped Coconut soaks up all the cream and dries again.
Take 3 tbsp sugar and grind it to powder.Keep aside. Add remaining sugar and Alphonso pulp to the Coconut mixture and mix well.
Cook the mixture on medium flame. As the sugar starts to melt, the mixture will become thin .Cook this mixture on medium flame with continuous stirring for about 20-25 minutes or until the mixture reduces and leaves the pan.
Add Cardamom powder to the fudge mixture. Mix well and put off the flame. Now add the reserved powdered sugar ( from step 3) and mix it evenly with the fudge mixture.
Quickly plate the fudge mixture into the greased tray and spread evenly with the back of a greased flat bowl . The fudge sets within no time. So cut the fudge into desired shape ( squares or diamonds ) and allow to cool down.
The above ingredients yield 18-20 medium sized barfi ( fudge) pieces. Store the fudge in dry air tight container . Enjoy the delicious , melt in mouth Mango Coconut fudge with your loved ones !
