Increase the flame high, add water and then sugar and stirr continously so that no lumps are formed. Reduce the flame and cook covered for 2-3 minutes. Add cardamom powder, raisins mix well.

use whole milk instead of water ... it tastes 'yummier' :)
ReplyDeleteOne can make suzi halwa with different fruits - i make one with bananas - an all time favourite - add chopped bananas just before you switch off the gas ... serve after 5-10 mins inorder to get the flavour of bananas. Apple / Chikoo can be used similarly.
For mango based suzi halwa - add fresh mango juice immediately after you have added milk / water.
Thanks Paddy...for the alterations. Will try the banana one shortly..
