Re: Besan ka halwa

Nikki baji, that looks yumious.

Chippy, I don't have any taste for spenda so it tasted horrible to me whereas my dad is used to splenda so I guess it didn't tasted that bad too him. Also it was made in half n hlaf and I had way too many chuwaras.....lol....
So yeah ask me to make any savory stuff, I can do that without an issue but don't ask me to make these hardcore desi sweets....lol...

Oh and this one time I made besan ka halwa and that thing was heavy as hell. My mom usually uses little milk and little water. I decided to use all milk to make it rich and it was kind of too rich, but I am sure it wasn't just milk but something else I did wrong that made it all that heavy. It was my own recipe and it was a bad recipe. lolz

Re: Besan ka halwa

it will become more tasty without eggs...

badam / pista?? .... they just annoy me in such a delicious thing n play the role of "haddi" in "Kababs"

I’ve never heard of besan ka halwa…but now that I got a huge bag of besan i’m gonna experiment…its just that the amount of calories in this makes me :bummer:

Channa ki daal ka halwa is better than besan ka halwa. And it is very easy to cook. Boil the daal, mash it and fry it with sugar and bari illachi!
