Samba Wheat Halwa

I won't call this an extraordinary dessert but it definitely caters another interesting and healthy number to sweet-toothed persons like my husband. The suitability of samba wheat for halwa is ironical, it is stiff and chewy even after cooking while we are used to eating gooey halwas; the beauty is, because of these very tendencies they absorb less ghee and sugar and still keep the halwa sweet .

Ingredients:

1.       Samba rava – 1 cup

2.       Milk – 1 cup

3.       Sugar – ¼ cup

4.       Cardamom powder – ½ tsp

5.       Almonds – 2 tbsp chopped

6.       Raisins – 2 tbsp

Step 3: Add sugar, cardamom powder and stir until the mass leaves the sides of the pan
