Steps

45 minutes

1

Take sooji in a bowl. Add water. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
2

Once the sooji starts rising, it is ready to get cooked.
3

In a kadhai, heat desi and add sugar.
4

Keep stirring till the sugar gets caramelized and starts dissolving.
5

Once the sugar caramelizes and gives out a caramel aroma, carefully add soaked sooji. This is a very important step. Pour the sooji carefully and do not stop stirring or you will end up getting lumps of sugar.
6

Keep stirring. You will need to put some pressure to break any sugar lumps formed. At this point, add more desi ghee so that stirring becomes easy and you get a nice shine. If you want to add green cardamom powder, add it now.
7

Stir till the halwa turns golden brown. Turn off the flame and keep the vessel in a tilted position for 5 minutes till all the extra ghee leaves the sides. Remove the extra ghee.
8

Garnish with pistachios or nuts of your choice. Serve hot.
