Ever heard of a calorie less, ghee free suji ka halwa? Learn from the great master my darlings!! I have decided here to share a recipe, which shall redefine the meaning of eating the delicious Indian sweet.Haan tou, festival time crept upon me. Now I love festivals because it means holidays *Yay* but I also hate them because it means a lot of sweets, which I just can’t seem to stop eating once I stop. It is a curse I say, a deadly curse!!
Khair, I had to fight the calorie war. And this determination set my over smart brain waves into motion. I remembered this microwave cooking class that I had attended a few decades ago. Alright, so it was a few weeks ago and don’t you dare make fun of my extracurricular activities. *Humph* It was fun.
So it was there that I learnt microwaves are a god sent gift to the human race. And in an effort to prove this factoid, I decided to use a long lost bit of information to my suji ka halwa recipe. It worked and now I am the proud initiator of this great microwave suji ka halwa. Enjoy!!
INGREDIENTS:
• Suji – 1 cup
• Water – 3 cups
• Sugar – 1 cup
