Badam ka halwa — almonds ground and cooked with semolina, milk, sugar, and generous desi ghee into a fudgy, aromatic dessert fit for celebrations.

Ingredients

Main

  • 1½ cups almonds, blanched and ground
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup semolina (sooji)
  • 1 cup desi ghee
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ tsp green cardamom powder

Instructions

  1. Cook. Heat ghee; lightly roast semolina. Add almond paste, milk, and sugar; cook until thick and ghee separates. Finish with cardamom.

Pro tip: Keep heat moderate after adding almonds — they scorch quickly and turn bitter.

The Story Behind This Dish

Almond halwa is wedding-feast and Diwali royalty — expensive nuts and slow ghee roasting signal honour and abundance for guests.
