What you need:
  • Wheat - 1 cup
  • water - 3 cups 
  • Ghee - about 1/4 cup
  • Sugar - 1/2 cup
  • Cashews, raisins and cardamom -  chopped as required
  • a pinch of kesar- dissolved in a little milk for colouring and taste.

Procedure:

Roast the atta it in a pan till it turns light brown in colour on a medium flame. On another flame put water to boil.

Once the water comes to boil add atta along with sugar and stir slowly and continuously with the spoon. Here you add the kesar mixture. Keep on stirring the halwa so that it do not stick at the bottom of the pan.
Once the halwa mixture thickens pour the remaining ghee into it and cook the halwa while stirring continuously. Take off the flame once it's mixed evenly.
Ta-da.. your halwa is ready... Now time to serve up and relish you yum tum..
Mummy khush... baby bhi khush..
