Ingredients

  • 1 cup full fat milk
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 3 tbsp ghee
  • ¼ cup rava | sooji
  • 1 tbsp curd

Instructions

  • In a heavy bottomed pan add the milk, sugar, ghee and sooji.
  • No need to roast the sooji.
  • Mix everything and start stirring it.
  • This will thicken in 2-3 minutes.
  • Keep stirring it, else it will stick to the bottom.
  • I personally don’t prefer adding cardamom powder or saffron to this paal halwa as it will suppress the milk taste.
  • Once it comes into a whole mass and leaves on the sides, add the cardamom powder, if you wish to add.
  • Mix well and the curd.
  • This gives a nice texture to the milk halwa.
  • Mix well and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Switch off the flame.
  • Milk halwa is ready.

Notes

  1. You can add saffron or cardamom powder if you wish to, but if you want to enjoy the true milk flavour, avoid adding it.
  2.  Milk halwa stays good in the refrigerator for 2 days.
  3.  You can add ghee roasted cashew nuts or almonds to this milk halwa.
