Egg Halwa


I know it sounds a bit strange but you can make a halwa out of eggs. That too with minimal ingredients and loads of patience.

Ingredients:
* Eggs 12
* Ghee 1/2 kilo
* Sugar 1/2 kilo
* Khoya/Condensed milk 100 gm
* Elaichi 8-10
* Almonds, Pistachio and Cashewnuts 1/2 cup finely chopped.

Procedure:
* Break all the eggs in a measuring jug. Note the mesurement. Empty it in a thick base saucepan.
* Measure equal amount of melted (not hot but at room temperature) ghee and add it to the eggs.
* Measure equal amount of sugar and add it to the ghee n egg mixture.
* Blend it with a blender so that everything turns into a smooth liquids.
* Put this liquid on low heat and keep stirring from the minute you put it on the stove.
* After around 30 minutes, minute balls of egg will be formed in the liquid and it will turn a bit dark.
* Add khoya/condensed milk and elaichi powder, again keep stirring.
* After another 20 minutes, it will turn into a thickish paste with ghee separating from the mixture.
* Add this mixture into a big tray and it will level itself cleanly. Sprinkle the chooped nuts over the mixture.
* Drain excess ghee into a pan and can be reused.
* Cut the halwa into pieces of your choice.
* Enjoy the egg halwa before/after/during meals.
* I like to warm it a bit before eating.

You can give it a try by using 1-2 eggs, it will be ready sooner and it will be a trial before you go out and make it for your family and friends.

Besan Mithai


This is one of the simplest of sweets you can make with just three ingredients. It is also called as besan halwa.

Ingredients:
* Besan 1 cup
* Sugar 1 cup
* Ghee/Butter 1 cup

Procedure:
Heat ghee, add besan and keep stirring for 3-4 minutes. Once you can smell besan being cooked, lower heat.
In the mean time, heat 1/4 cup water and add the sugar to it. Heat for 2 minutes till sugar dissolves completely.
Once the besan is cooked, add melted sugar syrup and turn off the heat.
Keep stirring till the mixture leaves the sides of the vessel.
Pour the mixture in a deep place and let it cool.
Cut the mithai in any shape you like.
It tastes best when it is a bit warm so heat it in a microwave for 15-20 seconds before serving.
