Beetroot is a tuber vegetable with natural sweetness which makes for great Halwa. This is your regular Halwa recipe but with a few twists of my own to get a creamier texture for melt-in-your-mouth Halwa! If you try this recipe do share your cooksnaps with me!
Happy Cooking! ❤️

Wash, peel and chop beetroots. Grind them to a smooth paste in a mixer. Add little milk to aid in grinding.
