    Burfi is a kind of sweet in Indian.In India,we literally make all kinds of 'burfis' depending upon which state,region you come from and what ingredients you toss into your burfi .Here I have for you a very unique yet super easy and very yum burfi made out of Pawpaw.Though seasonal,pawpaws are usually available,all year round in frozen form too.You can use frozen pawpaws also in this recipe.This burfi often draws a lot of attention due to its distinct acquired taste.

    3. Add ricotta and cook for 1-2 mins.Switch off the ehat and keep stirring for 8-10 mins o medium heat till the mixture cools down a bit.
