Corn flour halwa recipe

Recipe Cuisine: Indian  |  Recipe Category: Sweet
Prep Time: 1 mins    |  Cook time: 10 mins    |  Serves: 4

Ingredients

Corn flour (white starch)	1/2 cup
Sugar	1 & 1/2 cups
Water	2 cups
Ealchi powder	A pinch
Cashews	5 nos.
Ghee	2 –3  tsp
Food colour	1/2 pinch

 

Method

1. Mix corn flour,sugar,water and food colour in a large microwavable bowl, without any lumps.

2. Microwave in high for 6 minutes. After 4 minutes in between, mix once. Again microwave for 6 minutes, stirring in between after every 2 minutes of interval.

3. Fry cashews in ghee till golden brown and mix well along with elachi powder (cardamom powder). Grease a plate with ghee and pour in the plate and let it cool down for 1/2 hour or so. Cut into pieces and enjoy!

Notes

• Stirring in between as mentioned is very important to ensure even cooking.
• Do not reduce the sugar amount,as it will change the glossy look too and end up in porridge ;)
• The whole process is made in microwave high power.
• According to oven the cooking time varies plus or minus 2-3 minutes.
• Consume within one or two days. Refrigeration changes the texture so it is not recommended.
• There is a easy way to remember the recipe. 1 part corn flour,3 parts sugar,4 parts water. i.e; which ever cup u use, use the same cup and follow the ratio. Simple.

It has a texture just like jelly, but sure sweeter than that. Do try and you will agree that this is the easiest halwa you have ever made! Celebrate a safe Diwali and see you all after the festival!
