Author:	Priti	Category:	Sweets/Desserts	Cuisine:	North Indian
Prep Time:	15 Mins	Cook Time:	15 Mins	Total Time:	30 Mins
Yields:	14 to 16 Pieces

Ingredients:

For Kaju Roll
• 1 Cup - Cashewnuts/Kaju
• 1/2 Cup - Sugar
• 1/4 Cup - Water
• 1/4 tsp - Ghee (if required)
• 2 - Sliver Warq
For Pista Roll
• 1/2 Cup - Pista
• 1 tbsp - Powdered Sugar
• A Pinch - Green Food Color (optional)         
• 1-2 tbsp - water

Method:

1. Make sure cashewnuts and pista are in room temperature, grind cashews in dry mixer or coffee blender into powder, keep it slightly coarse, make sure you don't grind it too much so it becomes paste. In a pan or kadai (wok) take water, sugar and bring it to boil.

2. Prepare 1 string consistency sugar syrup, to cehck in a small bowl of water place few drops of sugar syrup it will form in thread and won't get dissolves, you syrup is ready. Add cashew powder and mix well to avoid any lumps in slow flame, keep stirring for 3-4 minutes until it mixture starts to leave side of pans and forms into dough.

3. If you take small amount of mixture and roll it will form into ball, off flame now and keep stirring for a minute, allow the mixture to cool, once it comes to slight warm stage knead it well to make smooth dough. You can add 1/4 tsp or 1/2 tsp of ghee to help with kneading.

4. For pista roll, grind pista into powder and in a bowl add powdered pista, sugar powder (use less since we have sugar in cashew mixture too), food color (if using) and mix well for form a dough, sprinkle few drops of to help in binding. Now divide the mixture into 4 portions and roll one portion into thin log or cyliner shape as in below picture, keep the dough covered all times.

5. Divide cashew dough into 4 portion too (keep the dough covered all times), take one portion and roll between plastic sheets or butter paper into rectangle. Now place the pista roll in middle carefully and using the plastic sheet rollup cashew so pista gets stuffed/enclosed in cashew. Roll cashew roll gently to get smooth texture, cut the both the edges and cut roll into 2 inch long cylinder.

6. Repeat same for rest of pista, cashew dough, if using sliver warq, gently press sliver foil/warq on cashew pista rolls (you can also apply sliver warq first and then cut rolls). You can keep the rolls in fridge for 30mins to 1 hour to firm them up.
   
   

Stay good for a week to 10 days if refrigerated.

Notes

• If the cashew dough dries up, add 1-2 tbsp milk and knead again, but this will reduce the shelf life.
• You can skip pista and make this as only kaju roll.
• Sugar syrup consistency is important so do not miss that, if you are not very sure once the syrup becomes sticky add cashew powder.
• Make sure both nuts are at room temperature before your powder them.
• Cashewnut mixture will not be smooth, don't worry we will knead it to make smooth.
• You can also make this cashew pista burfi.
