Thank you my friend. It is my wifes birthday today (Sep 1st) and i wanted to surprise her by my cooking skills by making something sweet / dessert. As they say in our Indian culture- Muh mitha karna shubh mana jata hai (Its auspicious to taste something sweet).
I wanted to make something different unlike a cake which is normal. So found this amazing quick receipe. I also had to see what ingredients are at home and which i can find in the kitchen closets :-)
I ended up having this wonderful halwa. Mine came out little dry, unlike what i have tasted made by mom which is shiny due to amazing ghee inside it. But thats ok. Also i felt almonds should have been soaked over night to the remove the peel easily, otherwise one needs to scratch the almonds harder.
Over all i am proud of myself for making the yummy halwa, thanks to your blog.
