#dussehra - Semolina Halwa in general is a very common and an all time favourite dessert prepared during auspicious occasions, festivals and ceremonies. It is very easy and simple to make. I just gave a twist from my side by adding equal quantity of fresh grated coconut to enhance the flavour. It can be relished as it is, as an after meal dessert or as a side dish with poori / paratha.
