Here I am sharing my delicious Gajar suji halwa recipe. I hope you like it…

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup suji ( semolina flour)
1/6 cup sugar
1/2 cup ghee ( clarified butter)
3 cups of water/ milk
pinch of cardamom powder
1-2 tbsp sliced almonds
pinch of zaffran ( Saffron )

HOW TO MAKE GAJAR SUJI HALWA

1. Soak zaffran in 1/4 cup water.

2. On the other hand boil the water with sugar and cardamom powder on medium flame.

3. Heat ghee ( clarified butter) in a pan on medium flame , add suji and roast till its golden brown in colour ( keep stirring ) , as the soji will start changing its colour, you will get a mesmerizing aroma.

4. Add the sugar and cardamom syrup slowly, it will splutter, so do not panic just add half water as the soji will start absorbing it, then add the rest water after few seconds with the zaffran.(with the water in which it was soaked)

5. Stir, cover and cook for 3 -5 minutes on low flame as the suji absorbs the water.

6. Here is your zaffrani Gajar suji halwa ready with nerve soothing aroma.

NOTE:

Adjust the sugar as per your taste.
For plain suji halwa , do not add zaffran to the suji rest the procedure is same.
Serve halwa hot or refregerated, depends upon your choice how you like it.

For GAJAR SUJI HALWA DUET:

Zaffrani Suji halwa|suji halwa ( proportion given above)
gajar ka halwa made of 500 gms carrots refer , My recipe here

1 -2 tbsp almond and pistachios
1 tbsp ghee

1. Once the gajar and zaffrani suji halwa is ready , take a square medium mould and grease the base and sides with ghee properly.

2. Now spread half of suji halwa evenly in the mould, then spread gajar ka halwa with a spoon or spetula properly. ( press it lightly with the help of the spoon so that gajar ka halwa gets formed )

3. Lastly spread the remaining suji ka halwa ensuring that there are no lumps formed in between the halwa , spread it giving it a flat surface, sprinkle almonds and pistachios.

4. Now refregerate it for 30 – 40 minutes and then cut the Gajarsuji duet into pieces very slowly and carefully, make sure your knife reaches out till the base of very 1st zaffrani suji halwa layer.

NOTE:
For preparing gajar suji halwa duet make sure that you make suji halwa at the same time. If you use previously made suji halwa then gajar suji halwa duet will not come out properly. Infact the layering will have lumps as suji halwa after resting for few hours it gets thicken and forms its own unusual shapes.

For assembling the both halwa make sure suji halwa is hot and freshly made then only it will a good finish layers.
