Whether enjoyed as a festive dessert during celebrations like Diwali or simply as an afternoon snack, it brings a sense of joy and nostalgia. This versatile dish can be savored warm or at room temperature, making it a comforting choice any time of day. Indulge in the bliss of sooji halwa and let its sweet aroma and delectable taste transport you to a world of culinary delight!
To prepare sooji halwa, start by heating ghee in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the semolina and roast it, stirring continuously, until it turns golden brown and emits a nutty aroma.
In a separate pot, bring water or milk to a boil. Once boiling, carefully add it to the roasted semolina, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Add sugar to the mixture and stir until it dissolves completely.
Add cardamom powder and mix well. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the halwa thickens and the semolina absorbs the liquid.
Once it reaches a desirable consistency, remove from heat. Garnish with fried cashews and raisins, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy this delicious sweet treat!
