I am craving something sweeeeet sooooo bad
and trying to control myself.

Re: Chanay ki daal ka halwa

I dont usually measure my ingredients, just eye ball them. So sorry i cannot give any exact measurements. but this is how i cook it:

Soak chana daal over night.
The next morning, drain the water and cook the daal in milk until tender and can be mashed easily with the back of a spoon. Also the milk should all be evaporated. Grind the daal now.
Heat ghee with some ilachi until you can smell it. Add the peesi hui daal and bhoonify it. When it starts to change color, add sugar according to your taste and bhoonify more until ghee seperates from the daal and the daal has formed a ball. You can also add pista badaam or whatever maiwa you like to the halwa.
You can store it in the fridge. But serve it warm.

This was delicious btw. :yummy: And pretty addictive. Also, since it requires a lot of chamcha hilyaing and a lot of effort, i made quite a bit. Roz roz itni mehnat ka kaam nahi hosakta.

Re: Chanay ki daal ka halwa

I remember reading somewhere that chanay ki daal in general is supposedly good for anyone trying to concieve. So i guess that would include its halwa too :slight_smile:

Plus i think you can generally store halwas for pretty long. We store in a container with a tight fitting lid and Ami puts a napkin on top (between the lid and halwa, that is) to soak the moisture.
