I have a sweet tooth and cant stay away from them.. I am sure most of you would say "same pinch". :)
Poppy seed halwa is an absolutely tempting sweet that we make and I just adore it too much. Mom used to tell me that its too healthy and it cools the body.
Its a very rich sweet to enjoy anytime. :)
Ingredients:
Poppy seeds(white) - 1 cup
Ghee - 3/4 cup
Sugar - 1 1/4 cup
Milk - 2 cups
Method:
Powder the poppy seeds in the mixie. Then grind the powdered poppy seeds and half the amount of milk together in the grinder till it becomes a slightly coarse paste.
In a heavy bottomed pan, take the ground paste,sugar and the remaining milk and stir continuously till it becomes thick(halwa consistency). Now add the ghee little by little and mix well. Switch off the flame when ghee separates and the halwa stops sticking to the corners for the pan. Poppy halwa is ready to eat :)
