    hi

    Hi Sakhi,

    Here is one recipe of 'Sabudhana Halwa'. I will give 2 types and I dont know whether you are looking for this type. Give me FB. ok?:)

    Simple Method:

    1 Cup Sago/ Sabudhana
    2 Cups Sugar
    1 1/2 Cups Melted Ghee
    1 Table spoon Cashew nuts (broken)
    1 Tea spoon ‘kismis’
    ¼ Tea spoon Cardamom powder.



    Method:

    In a pan pour ½ of the ghee and put sabudhana with that.
    Fry till all of them fried well in ghee.
    Sabhudhana will become big after frying.
    Now add 2 cups of water and allow sabudhana to cook well.
    Then add sugar and pour ghee and mix well.
    In another pan pure the balance ghee and fry cashew and kismis.
    Put them with the cooked sabudhana, mix well.
    Add cardamom powder and mix well.
    When it starts leaving ghee from the sides, remove from the fire and put it in a vessel.
    We can use this ‘Sabudhana Halwa’ after it comes to room temp.

    Note: Fry Sabudhana well in ghee. Otherwise it will become ‘sticky’.

    Re: Ask here - The recipes you want from ChitVish

    Hi all,

    I have 2 sweet recipes which require the same ingredients. It is quite common in South India. The 2 sweets r suyyam and poli.

    Suyyam:

    Bengal Gram (Channa dal) - 2 cups
    Jaggery (crushed) - 2 cups
    Maida - 2 to 3 cups
    Cardamon powder - 1 tsp
    Shredded Coconut - 2 tbsps


    Boil water and add jaggery, keep it in medium heat till jaggery dissolves and thickens a little. keep stirring then and then to avoid jaggery sticking to the pan.


    Pressure cook bengal gram and mash it. it shud neither b too soft nor very coarse. Add liquified jaggery littel by little and gently mix with a laddle. finally add cardamon powder and coconut and mix well. The consistency must be semi solid enof to make balls (lemon size) out of tat dough. This is called poornam meaning stuffing.

    Take maida, add water little by little and make it to sauce consistency(neither very watery nor tough). Dip the balls made out of jaggery and bengal gram in this maida and deep fry it.

    If u have the south indian cooking accessory called paniyara kadai, u can save oil.Instead of deep frying u can add little oil in this kadai and fry it.

    Poli:

    Follow the same procedure as above to make poornam.
    Instead of liquidifying the maida make it like chappathi's.(Very thin)
    In the centre of the chappathi keep this poornam(balls made).
    Cover it and roll it again so that it looks like stuffed chappathi.
    Fry it in tawa like chappathi's.

    For poli u can avoid coconut in the stuffing. Likewise add a pinch of salt and pinch of turmeric to the maida dough.
