This is a quick halwa that can be prepared in minutes when you have a desire to eat something sweet. Here is the recipe :
Ingredients ( this recipe will make for 4-5 people)
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 table spoon sooji ( to give halwa the coarse wheat flour feeling)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup ghee
- 1 glass of hot water
- 1 tspoon of elaichi powder
Method
- Heat a nonstick pan on medium heat and pour ghee in it .
- Add the wheat flour along with sooji and keep roasting it. ( if roasting is not that easy u can add 1 table spoon more ghee. )
- Roast till the flour is of brown color and u will feel the aroma. ( stir it continuously otherwise it will burn )
- Then add the hot water slowly , stir it carefully.
- After the water is absorbed , add the sugar.
- Let the sugar get absorbed, the halwa will start leaving the pan sides and u will see halwa leaving the ghee.
- Just add a little elaichi powder and its ready to eat.
Note: If u replace 1 cup of sugar with 1 cup of cut jaggery pieces , it will have a different taste. You can even make One glass of water with 1 cup of jaggery pieces and add the jaggery syrup directly instead of water and jaggery separately. I personally love the jaggery version of this halwa.
