Suji Halwa Recipe, How to make Suji Halwa with Badam | Rava Sheera Recipe

January 3, 2016 by maria 2 Comments

Badam Suji Halwa is nothing but Semolina Almond Pudding! Suji Halwa is also called as sheera, rava halwa and so on. Also Almonds are called as badam in India. Badam Suji Halwa is such a popular dessert that it is made across all households in India. Wonder what took me so long to post this recipe? I love Badam Suji Halwa made by my mom ;)…. However I miss that now as I had to make them myself. I remembered how mom makes and I tried copying her. My hubby and my friends loved Badam Suji Halwa I made. I honestly felt mums tasted much better.

Hmmmm I was never so fond of Badam Suji Halwa as I am post marriage. I made it again today along with some boiled sweet potatoes. As I was getting really bored to cook anything else. Also not to forget I have made Almond Kulfi which I would be posting soon.

Recently I also made Almond Milk which tasted quite good. I can go on as I love desserts. Coming back to Badam Suji Halwa. Now Suji Halwa is made in many different ways. Some add saffron, nuts Or some make plain suji halwa.

Notes
1. You can also add roasted semolina to the ghee. Later add milk and other ingredients. Many people follow this way also. Bottomline is the mixture should be even and lump free.
2. You can add your choice of nuts Or saffron.
3. Instead of milk you can use water also.
4. Ensure all the time flame is on low mode Or your halwa will get burnt.
