Badam Halwa

Ingredients:

1 cup almonds
2 ½ cups sugar
2 cups ghee
1 pinch kesari (yellow)

Method:

Soak 1 cup of almonds in boiling water.
Peel off the skin of the almonds and grind the almonds in a mixer to make a fine paste.
Prepare sugar syrup by boiling the sugar with cup of water taken in a pan.
When the sugar syrup starts boiling, add the almond paste and mix well.
Mix the kesari powder with a little water and add to the boiling mixture.
Immediately, mix in 1 cup of ghee.
As the mixture starts becoming paste-like, gradually pour in spoonfuls from
the remaining cup of ghee.
When the mixture reaches a batter-like consistency, remove from the fire.
Serve hot.
