I always make halwa for the morning but last time I made it for some reason it was such a disaster…its such a simple recipe but I couldnt get it right..it was either undercooked or too cooked…
Pls give me a fool proof recipe..
Also I like seviyan for breakfast too..any one got a easy recipe for this?
Any other ideas for eid breakfast? I want to make something nice for hubby this year inshallah
Halwa sounds good, which halwa do you make? there are so many , carrot halwa, sooji halwa, baisan halwa etc ..
Swiyan is pretty easy … this is how I do it :
heat two tablespoon oil in a pot … add two to three cardamom pods to it … after a minute add the vermecelli to it .. and fry quickly on low heat .. this takes about 2 minutes .. then add milk …I dont measure the milk.. just make sure you add loads of it .. like nearly fill half the pot …
Then up the heat and let it boil .. when boiled , medium heat , keep stiring and let the milk boil until in about 20-25 minutes it starts to thicken … when it becomes much reduced in quantity … add the chopped nuts … sugar to taste … and just 3 minutes before taking it off the flame , add fresh double cream half a cup … or add condensed milk .. and stir … it gives that creamy flavour to the siwayan …
You could make Phaiywian, theyre like saiwiyan but slightly dif taste, and i like them better(YUM). or You can make Firni, my mom always makes it on eid, super yum. But Halwa is a good idea, eat halwa for dessert, or make puri and chanay and you got a halwa puri breakfast.
You can also make zarda.
sunna is to wait till the sunrise and have something sweet…in our family we breakfast on eid with chhohaara [dried dates] pieces socked in milk overnight. This is Lucknauwii tradition
If you cannot make good halwa , then make kheer or firni , they are easy to make and you cannot go wrong.
Roasting the soji to the right point and then adding the right amount of water/milk and then getting it to the desired consistency are muskil muqamat in this rah a ishq and everybody is not cut out for it.
