NOTES :

1. While scrapping the coconut take care not to scrap till the brown sides. 
2. If you like your burfi is to be fine then grind the coconut once in mixie.
3. You can even roast the coconut seperately before adding to the sugar syrup.
4. Make sure cool them only for 10 ins else making pieces will be difficult..
