6. Halved Almonds(badams)

Method:
1. Take a heavy base wok or pan. Put in the all the ingredients except sugar and mix well.(I did not had the mango pulp so used just mango essence and Saffron strands in it).
2. Turn on the stove on medium heat. Let it cook for 2-3 mins.
3. Since the ingredients are dry it will be ready soon .As soon as it starts forming a dough add sugar according to your taste and continue stirring the mix.
4. In next 2 mins you will get the dough like consistency.
5. Switch off the heat and transfer the contents on to a greased plate or cookie sheet or any flat base .
6. Set the barfi or kalakand and plane the texture using a spatula or a flat spoon.
7. After about half an hour cut the pieces and place split almonds for garnishing.
