suji-ka-halwa
I am following a slightly different method here ,one which is quick and easy ,yet tastes extremely good!
Ingredients-
- suji(semolina)-1/2 cup
- powdered sugar- 1/2 cup
- green cardamom(powdered)- 1/2 tsp
- desi ghee- 2 large tbsp.
- water - 2 cups
- dry fruit (chopped)-2 tbsp
- coconut - (dry )- 2 tbsp chopped
Method-
Heat ghee in a heavy bottom kadhai, add the suji and dry roast for few minutes, add the dry fruits and coconut and continue stirring and roasting till it takes on a light brownish-creamish colour and the rawness of the suji disappears(this requires total attention and dedication!), next add sugar and water,let cook for another 10 mins. till suji absorbs water and swells up and the mixture turns thick and creamy.Serve piping hot,yum!
Dig into a great-tasting weekend breakfast!
