Halwa is the quintessential Indian dessert we all love. The name has Arabic roots and it's so popular in India that anyone who is involved in the business of making sweets is called halwai. Often made for special occasions and festivals, there isn't a particular time or day to have an appetizing bowl of halwa. Here we tell you about 5 types of halwa you just can't miss.
Beetroot halwa
Both the colour and taste of beetroot halwa will make you fall for it. The recipe for this dish is similar to gajar halwa. Notably, beetroot is extremely healthy and therefore you won't be guilty of asking for an extra bowl of dessert.
Moong dal halwa
Moong dal halwa has a distinguished smell and texture. Its flavoursome taste is something one can never forget. All you need is some ingredients and too much patience to make moong dal halwa.
Oats halwa
Nothing can be as healthy and fulfilling as starting your day with oats halwa. It includes oats, jaggery, nuts as basic ingredients and it is definitely something you and your family should give a try.
Pumpkin halwa
Pumpkin is a seasonal vegetable and therefore you should try making pumpkin halwa only in the right season. This will be a bit easy to make compared to moong dal or other popular types of halwa but equally delicious and addictive.
Atta halwa
Despite being a basic and one of the simplest versions of halwa, most people don't know that apart from suji or gajar, atta could be a choice too for making this dessert. It can be a good source of energy and carbohydrates apart from being a delight.
