మైదా హల్వా




My grandmother taught me this dish. Shez a wonderful woman with modern views. There are two ways of doing the same dessert and this a quicky.... i learnt the most quickest one, reason being - once i feel like eating anything it should be there in front of me the very next moment Cant wait ;)



Ingredients:

Maida/ All purpose flour or Corn Flour - 1 cup
Milk - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 cup
Elachi - 4 cloves powdered

Procedure:




-Mix equal quantities of sugar, maida and milk (Check for consistency -- same as buttermilk).


- Heat a pan and pour this solution into the pan


-After a 5-10 minutes this will get viscous at this point add Ghee to the pan and eventually the it will cook and form a dough. (Check that its done: pierce a fork into it, it should come out nice and clean & Ghee will ooze out).




You can garnish it with as many dry fruits as you want, I don't relish the taste of raisins so you will hardly notice me use them.


Also called: Halwa / Maida halwa
