As a teenager I never liked to get involved in making sweets except tilgul laddos & karanjis. I found the process tiresome. However i enjoyed eating them .One such recipe is coconut barfi /naralachi wadi .Coconut means naral in marathi & wadi /vadi means fudge/BARFI .Coconut Burfi is an easy to make sweet and a quick recipe too. It is called 'khobbri mithai' in Kannada and 'naralachi vadi' or 'khobaryachi vadi' in marathi. You can have it as a dessert or as a sweet snack or just like that.
It has a shelf life of about 10-15 days so you can make in advance and keep it ready to serve when needed. In hot summer days you can keep it for about a week.
Mom prepares a wide range of wadis like naralachi wadi ,beetroot wadi,matarchi wadi/tomato vadi/batata vadi .
.
But being mango season Todays recipe is ambyachi wadi ie mango barfi / amba naral wadi.Again moms recipe which was sent to me by her. I clicked the photos & asked the recipe on phone.So here we go .

Wow what a recipe. Potato addition is new thing! Sadly, mango season 5 months away. Tried sweet potato cutlet and it was delicious.
