Halwa is a sweet pudding made from cereals, vegetable, fruits with loads of ghee and lots of dry fruits like cashews, almonds, pistachios. In India, Halwa is usually prepared for all kinds of festive celebrations.

Rava Gramflour Halwa

Sooji Besan Halwa is a very delicious Indian dessert made with gram flour (besan) and sooji (rava). I also tried different halwa recipes with Rava and Whole Wheat Flour (Atta) like Milk Rava Halwa, Sooji Gur Halwa, Whole Wheat Jaggery Halwa, Atta Sooji Halwa. This time I tried with sooji (rava) and besan (gram flour). It turned out super delicious and yummy. This is a perfect rich dish for special occasions and festive celebrations.
