Moong Dal Halwa

Note: This dish is NOT meant for the calorie-conscious, mostly because it has 6 tbsp of ghee. And a cup of sugar. Bwahahahaha!!

You'll need:

* 1.5 cups soaked moong dal
* 1.5 L milk
* 1 cup sugar
* 3/4 cup well-crumpled khoa (or mawa)
* 1/2 tsp saffron soaked in milk
* 6 powdered cardamoms
* 6 tbsp ghee
* Chopped almonds

And here's how:

1. Sabse pehle, grind the moong dal coarsely. Then, heat the ghee in a dekchi & fry the moong dal till it turns golden.

2. Now, add the milk & cook till it is absorbed. Then, add the khoa & cook on a low flame, STIRRING CONSTANTLY :P till the moong dal & khoa blend together. Once done, remove from flame & keep aside.

3. Iske baad, make a thin sugar syrup & add the saffron & cardamom powder to it. Finally, add the moong dal & stir quickly till it mixes WELL :D Then garnish with the chopped almonds.

MDH done!! TipToEat - Piping hot is when you want to have it ;)
