Instructions
 

  • Heat the ghee in a non-stick pan or kadai over medium heat.
  • Add the semolina to the pan and roast it until it turns golden brown, stirring continuously to avoid burning.
  • In a separate saucepan, bring the water to a boil.
  • Slowly add the boiling water to the roasted semolina, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
  • Cook the mixture on low heat until the semolina absorbs the water and thickens to a porridge-like consistency.
  • Add the sugar and cardamom powder to the pan and mix well. Continue cooking until the sugar is dissolved and the halwa becomes glossy.
  • In a small frying pan, heat a little ghee and roast the almonds, cashews, and raisins until they turn golden brown.
  • Add the roasted nuts and raisins to the halwa and mix well.
  • Remove from heat and let the halwa sit for a few minutes before serving.
  • Garnish with some extra nuts and raisins on top.
  • Serve the delicious Sooji Ka Halwa warm and enjoy!
