Main Equipment Used

Steps In Making

The sugar syrup

  1. To prepare the sugar syrup, add water and sugar in a pan and heat till the sugar dissolves completely.

The Halwa

  1. Heat ghee in a kadai, then add chopped almonds, cashews, and roast for a minute. Further, add raisins and roast for another minute. Once done remove them in a plate.
  2. In the same kadai add 2-3 tablespoons of ghee and once the ghee melts, add suji and whole wheat flour. Roast for 5-6 minutes on medium heat or till it gets a light golden brown colour and turns aromatic. The mixture will turn frothy and begin to release ghee.
  3. Now, add the sugar syrup and continue stirring it continuously to avoid lumps.
  4. Cook for 6-7 minutes or till the water is completely absorbed and becomes thick.
  5. Now add the rest of the ghee, roasted nuts and cardamom powder and cook for another two minutes.
  6. Once the halwa cools down it will thicken, so don’t overcook it.
  7. Serve hot or cold. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
