The most commonly made Indian sweet at homes. Quick and easy loaded with loads of dry fruits make this Halwa more appetizing.
I still remember when i was a kid and if there was any sudden arrival of guests, my mother use to run into the kitchen and withing minutes she use to come out with bowls of suji ka halwa. The mouth melting halwa with the richness of ghee n dry fruits was my family’s all time favorite. I still do make it for my son specially in winters.
