One of the rainy-day delights that you can make at home is besan ka halwa. Topped with dry fruits, this nutritious delight will feed your sugar cravings and leave you satisfied. Here is a quick recipe.

Ingredients

2 tbsp rava ½ cup ghee ⅕ cups besan ¼ tsp cardamom powder ½ cup sugar 2 cups milk 2 tbsp saffron milk ⅓ cup chopped dry fruits

Step 1

Take a large heavy bottom pan and roast besan and rava in it for the toasted flavour.

Step 2

Once the besan releases an aroma and turns brown in 25-30 minutes on a low flame, add milk.

Step 3

Keep stirring continuously until you have a smooth concoction. This will also prevent lumps and milk from sticking to the surface.

Step 4

As the halwa starts to separate from the kadhai, add saffron milk and sugar. 

Step 5

Stir the mixture until the sugar dissolves. Garnish with cardamom powder and dried fruits.

Step 6

Serve and enjoy. You can also store it in the refrigerator and enjoy it for a week.
