  • The sweet is perfect for this halwa so no need to add extra sugar.
  • Always ensure that the corn flour mixture will not have any lumps.
  • This will stay good for 4-5 days in the refrigerator but the texture will not be the same if you keep it inside the refrigerator. So better to make it and consume within 2 days.

But I just tasted the scraped off leftovers from the kadai and wow!! Straightaway thought I should thank u for sharing this easy-peasy delicious halwa. Will post pics of it in my blog soon 🙂
