Habshi Halwa
Habshi halwa is the most time consuming sweet dish I have ever made till now. I have heard about this dish on the trip of Royal Rajasthan. I was so curious that I asked every single person I met on that trip about the recipe. But very few people know about the recipe. We went to my mother's paternal Village there one old lady told me about this recipe. The generous lady even offered to make it for us but our stay was too short to accept her kind offer. Next day I left that place heavy hearted as I really wanted to see the process and have that lip smacking Halwa. As I reach home from trip I started preparing for Halwa.
Preparation is little patience checking. First soak wheat overnight. Then let it sprout in a pot. 1 cup of wheat is enough for 4 people. Roast sprouted wheat in ghee untill golden brown. Allow it to cool and grind it in to thick texture like cracked wheat. Before this boil 1 ltr milk until it reduces to half. Keep it aside and roast again ground wheat for couple of minutes. Now gradually add reduced milk. Let it cook completely on very low flame steering occasionally. It will release ghee after cooked completely. Now add sugar as per taste again let it thicken. Add cardamom powder if you wish. I don't add any dry fruits. I like to keep it the rustic and minimal.
So that's it foodies this is how Habshi halwa is made. I didn't find this on any restaurant's menu on my trip but I wish you find this and relish the taste of simplicity!!! Otherwise you will have to make this by yourself. And I insist everyone must try this heavenly dish from Royal state of Bharat! Or else find some Indian friends near you and you are done... you just need to drop a wish. Indian people love to cook & feed their loved ones. Try this trick I am sure you will be thankful to me. 🤣
