Here you go again, another sweet recipe in my blog. Very easy to prepare and tastes good too.
Ingredients:
Sooji (Rava) - 1 Cup
Sugar - 1 cup
Butter - 1/2 cup
Cream - 1/2 cup
Water (or Milk) - 2 Cups
Food color (optional) - 1 pinch
Salt - 1 pinch
Cardamom powder - 1/4 tsp
Cashew nuts - 1/4 cup
Procedure:
- Melt Butter in a non-stick pan. Add Sooji and mix well.
- Fry Sooji till it slightly changes the color. Add sugar, salt and mix well.
- Mix food color in the milk and keep adding it slowly to the above mixture. Keep mixing continuously to avoid formation of lumps.
- Add cardomom powder to the cream and add it slowly to the above mixture while mixing it continuously.
- Cook on medium heat and keep mixing till the butter starts leaving the halwa.
- Grease a nonstick pan and add the above halwa mixture and spread it evenly.
- Once cooled, the Halwa becomes a bit hard. Cut it in to desired shape.
- Fry cashew nuts in ghee till they turn golden brown and place them on a paper towel to remove extra ghee.
- Place the fried cashew on the Halwa pieces and press them gently so that they stick to the sweet.
Enjoy with a group of friends and family
Note: Food color and Cashew nuts are optional. Make sure you cook that Halwa till it starts leaving ghee.
