About Sooji barfi

Sooji Barfi is a traditional Indian dessert made primarily from semolina (sooji), sugar, ghee, and milk, often flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts like almonds or pistachios. Its soft, fudge-like texture and mildly sweet taste make it a popular choice for festive occasions and celebrations. Originating from South Asian cuisine, this treat is rich in carbohydrates and provides quick energy. While semolina is a good source of iron and proteins, the addition of ghee and sugar makes it relatively high in calories and fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Nuts contribute healthy fats, fiber, and essential minerals to the dish. This indulgent dessert balances flavor and nutritional value but is best enjoyed as an occasional treat rather than a regular part of the diet.
