Corn Flour Halwa

For the final week of blogging marathon#17 I have chosen the Indian sweets payasam and halwa theme,today's recipe is cornflour halwa.This halwa is also known as Karachi Halwa.
Corn flour halwa is a delicious and excellent halwa which can be made in no time with easily available ingredients and lesser amount of ghee.Here goes the recipe for simple halwa.........

Ingredients

Corn Flour1/2cup
Sugar11/2cups
Water21/2cups
Ghee2-3tbs
Cashews(finely chopped)2-3tbs
Elachi powder/ellakai podi1/2tsp
Food colour(red or orange)a pinch


Method

                        Fry the cashews in 1/2tsp of ghee and grease a small plate or tray with little ghee.Mix the corn flour with 11/2cups of water along with the food color without any lumps,keep aside.Heat a heavy bottom pan and add the sugar and 1 cup of water,bring it to a boil till it becomes thick(no need of any string consistency).
Add the corn flour mixture slowly to the sugar syrup and stir it continuously to avoid any lumps till it becomes thick.
At this stage add the ghee and mix it well till the mixture becomes glossy and transparent.Put off the stove.
Now add the elaichi powder and fried cashews to it and give it a mix,then transfer it to the greased plate.Slice it after it completely cool down.
Corn flour halwa is ready.

Enjoy.............................

  • Do not compromise on the amount of sugar,otherwise it does not taste good.
  • After adding the corn flour mixture it is important to stir continuously to avoid lumps.
  • Nuts such as pumpkin seeds,cucumber seeds and almonds can also added for extra rich taste.
