Halwa, puri and chane, is a devine combination that is made at my home on the 8th day of Navratri, as ashtami prasad, and today was no exception to that.

I decided to make the halwa this time, and made the simplest one at that. No excessive dried fruits or coconut, no requirement of sugar syrup or too much desi ghee.

Just simple and delicious sooji halwa prasad.

Do give it a try, and if you do, then don't forget to share your Cooksnap with me.
