Dear, Yes. You can take your friend's acknowledgement of the money received by him/her on a stamp paper. In addition to this, ask him/her to execute a promissory note undertaking to repay the amount received from you and also ask demand him/her to issue signed blank cheques for security purpose that can be presented when the need arises. This is enough to sue your friend in case of his/her default in repayment of the money due.
