Notes
To give the coconut mango burfi an inviting look, I remove the brown skin from the coconut.
Avoid adding water while grinding the coconut pieces or else the mixture will turn mushy.
It is ideal to select a mango with a deep yellow skin shade for the recipe. This will definitely enhance the final color of the coconut mango burfi.
There is no need to add water when you are making the mango paste. I, however, recommend adding sugar if necessary.
If you do not have a baking tray, you can prepare the burfi in any plate.
