Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients: |
1/2 cup Sooji (semolina/rava) |
1/3 cup Ghee (clarified butter) (or 1/4 cup) |
1¼ cups Water |
1/2 cup Sugar |
5 Almonds (badam), sliced |
5 Cashew nuts (kaju), chopped |
1/4 teaspoon Cardamom Powder |
Directions:
- Pour 1¼ cups water in a small saucepan and bring it to boil over medium flame, it will take around 3-4 minutes. Remove it from the flame and keep aside until you reach step-4 below.
- Take sooji in a heavy based pan, add ghee and heat it over medium flame.
- Stir and mix using spatula.
- Roast it until golden-brown. It will take anywhere between 8 to 10 minutes.
- Reduce flame to low; slowly add boiled water and mix by stirring constantly (add water only in small incremental quantities because it will splutter as soon as you add it).
- Stir and cook to avoid any lump formation.
- Increase flame to medium and cook until all water gets absorbed. Add sugar and cardamom powder.
- Stir until sugar dissolves and it has a semi-solid consistency. Add and mix almonds and cashew nuts after reserving some of them for garnishing.
- The suji halwa is now ready for serving.
