Custard Powder Halwa

Ingredients:

Custard Powder: 1 cup
Sugar: 3 cups
Water: 4 cups
Ghee: 5 tsp
Cashew nuts: 10

 

Method:

1. Chop the cashew nuts finely and keep aside. No need to roast them. Keep a plate ready by greasing it with ghee.

2. In a thick bottomed pan, mix together custard powder, water, sugar and mix well without any lumps.

3. Keep the pan on the stove and begin by cooking over high flame.

4. The mixture will begin to boil and start to thicken. Keep stirring.

5. Add ghee, cashew nuts, mix well and reduce the flame. By now the mixture will look like a thick jelly.

6. Keep stirring continuously for 8-10 mins till the mixture begins to form into a lump and begins pulling away from the sides.

7. Transfer the halwa to greased plate and level the top. You can sprinkle some nuts.

8. Once it cools slice them and serve.
