Nagpuri santra barfi is a tasty and delicious sweet delicacy with the sweetness and tanginess of orange. This orange burfi recipe is quite different from the traditional burfi. Here we have used few minimal ingredients to make this recipe.

This version of instant santra barfi resembles a kalakand like texture more than a fudge. You can make this recipe with other flavors using seasonal fruits. Pineapple will be the next best option to make this. Strawberries go well too!

pro tips to make orange barfi: 1. For a more intense orange flavor, you can skip the orange crush and add a few drops of orange essence to the mixture. 2. Let the barfi set in the fridge for at least 1 hour to get clean cuts. 3. Cook the mixture while stirring continuously until it forms a lumpy mixture, and make sure all the moisture evaporates.

Is Orange Barfi healthy?

No. As there is lots of sugar used. 

Let's understand the Ingredients.

What's good.

Milk, Low Fat Milk, Milk powder : 1 cup of milk provides 70% of the Recommended Daily Allowance of Calcium. Milk promotes strong bones. The Calcium in Milk helps to protect your teeth against gum disease and keeps your jaw bone strong and healthy. Milk is low in carbs and therefore does not raise blood glucose levels. However diabetics must consider including low fat milk as advised by their dietitian only so as to avoid any fluctuations in blood sugar levels. Protein is another key nutrient which milk is rich in - 8.6 g from a cup. So all those looking to build protein stores can add milk and its products like curd and paneer to their diet. One cup of Milk gives 10 grams of carbs.  Low fat milk has lower fat and the same benefits of milk

Ghee : Other than calories and fats, the only nutrients that ghee is rich in are the vitamins – all of which are fat-soluble. All the 3 vitamins (Vitamin AVitamin E and Vitamin K) are antioxidants which have a role in removing free radicals from the body and protecting our cell as well as help in maintaining skin health and glow. Ghee is an excellent, high-quality selection medium of cooking because of its high smoke point. As compared to most oils and butter, ghee can handle a smoke point of 230°C, 450°F, thus its less prone to oxidant and destruction of nutrients. Yes, ghee does contain cholesterol, but some amount of cholesterol is needed by the body. Cholesterol has some functions to play too. It is necessary for hormone production, brain function, cell health and lubricating the joints. It is, in reality, a high quality fat for the body and brain. Ghee is loaded with fats but that’s medium chain fatty acids (MCT) which aid in weight loss. Ghee is healthy for daibetics in small amounts. Learn to easily make your ghee at home which is free of preservatives. See benefits of ghee

Oranges, Sweet Lime (Mosambi) Citrus fruits : These fruits are low in calories and rich source of fiber. They are also low carb and high in Vitamic C. Oranges and Sweet Lime are rich in Vitamin A also. Read this article on benefits of citrus fruits
