BADAM HALWA

BADAM HALWA

Ingredients:

1 cup whole badam
1 cup sugar more if you like
5 tbs of ghee
¼ cup to ½ cup of milk
Little saffron or yellow colour

Method:

Soak the badam in very hot water for about ½ an hour.
Then remove the skins from the badam.
Soak the saffron in little milk.

Using the milk grind the badam to a smooth paste.
In a heavy bottomed pan, add the ground badam paste,
sugar and the saffron soaked milk.

Place the pan on medium heat and keep on stirring.
As it thickens add the ghee little by little.
Stir until the mixture starts to leave the sides, and come together.
Keep on stirring.
You should be able to roll a little of it into a ball.
Remove from heat and cool.
The consistency should be soft. Enjoy.
