Halwa is a much-loved Indian dessert, but traditionally it’s made with a lot of ghee which isn’t ideal for people looking for a healthier diet. This no-oil, no-ghee version is a simple solution for guilt-free indulgence.
Ingredients
1 cup of flattened rice (aval) 300 grams of jaggery 3 cups coconut milk Chopped nuts (optional)
Step 1
Begin by roasting the flattened rice and then grind it into a fine powder
Step 2
In half a cup of hot water, melt the jaggery. Then filter it to remove any impurities.
Step 3
Add the powdered rice to the coconut milk and grind the mixture thoroughly then transfer the mixture to a pan and heat it while adding one cup of water.
Step 4
As the mixture thickens, pour in the jaggery syrup while continuously stirring until the jaggery completely dissolves, and the mixture reaches a semi-solid consistency.
Step 5
Once achieved, transfer the mixture to another vessel. Allow it to cool down then cut it into pieces of your preferred size and enjoy.
