Ingredients

1 Cup atta
1 Cup ghee
1 Cup granulated white sugar
4 Cup water

Instructions

In a heavy bottom flat pan heat ghee. Add flour and start roasting it over low heat turn till the color of flour is deep brown and a sweet roasted aroma is released. This usually takes 10 – 15 minutes over low heat.Keep stirring the flour while roasting for even coloring and avoid burning.
Meanwhile, boil the water and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat till sugar is nicely dissolved in water. Simmer the sugar syrup over low heat till flour is nicely roasted. Add a teaspoon of cardamom powder for taste and aroma (optional).Add the warm sugar syrup slowly to the roasted flour. Keep stirring the mixture continuously in a circular clockwise motion to avoid any lump formation.
Stir and cook the halwa till it absorbs all the sugar syrup. Cover and cook for a minute over low heat. After a minute, turn off the heat. Garnish with sliced almonds, if you prefer.
