Kadha Prashad

Add sugar to water and set in pan to boil.

Melt ghee and add atta to it. Roast on low flame till it turns brown, Continue stirring flour and ghee mixture while sugar boils to make light syrup.

The ghee will start separating from the atta and give out a wonderful aroma as it turns brown.

Add cardamom powder in the boiling syrup.

Pour boiling sugar syrup into this mixture. Mixture will sputter. Take care not to be scalded. Stir rapidly until all water is absorbed.

Keep stirring halwa as it thickens into a firm pudding.

Completely cooked halwa slides easily from pan.

Add slivered almonds, pistachios or cashews as per your choice.
Serve the halwa.
