Hope everybody had a colourful and sweetilicous Diwali (I know it's too late for this question).... Anyways this year for Diwali I made Badam Halwa with almonds I got last year for Diwali. Simple recipe and easy to make...the whole process takes just an hour or so..... Ingredients: Recipe Source: Jeyashri's Kitchen Badam/Almonds - 1/2 cup, heaped Sugar - 1/2 cup, heaped Ghee - 1/4 cup Milk - 1/4 cup Yellow food colour - a pinch Cardamom powder - a pinch Method: Soak almonds in hot water for an hour. Take out the skin and grind it into a smooth paste by adding milk to this. In a heavy bottomed non-stick vessel add the sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Boil till the sugar dissolves and when it is completely dissolved lower the flame and add the ground almond paste. Mix this without any lumps. Add the food colour and cardamom powder. Stir continuously and slowly add ghee to this. Adding the right amount of ghee will give a nice texture to the halwa ....
