Apple Halwa ~ Rakhi Special


Ingredients:

3 grated apples (I used gala)
1 cup sugar
1 tbsp ghee
2 tbsp coarsely powdered cashews
1/2 tsp cardamom powder

GARNISH.

Dry fruits.(I used Almonds).




Method:

Wash and Peel the apples and grate them.Keep aside.
Heat ghee in a non stick pan. Add the grated apple and fry on a medium heat, till all the water is evaporated . It takes about 8-10mins.
Now add the sugar and coarsely powdered cashews and mix it.
Cook, mixing occasionally, till the mixture thickens and all the sugar is mixed well with apples. Towards the end, you need to mix continuously, otherwise it sticks to bottom of the pan and burns.



When it looks very dry, add cardamom powder and mix .
Grease a plate with ghee and pour the halwa on plate and allow it cool.Later shape them into a round small balls . Garnish with ur favourite dry fruits. I used roasted almonds .
OR Transfer the contents on a greased(with ghee) plate and flatten it.Cut it into squares or into desired shapes. Let it cool down a little bit and then take out the pieces.
