Bombay Ice Halwa
Method
Grease a long piece of aluminium foil & a plastic sheet,keep it ready.
Mix the nuts,cardamom powder & saffron in a bowl.
Take a heavy pan i used a non stick pan mix the sooji,milk,sugar,food colour & ghee.
Switch on the stove & give a boil, now reduce the flame & keep stirring till this mixture forms into a soft dough.Switch off the stove
Now add 1tsp of ghee, essence mix,pour this halwa on the greased foil.
Cover it with a greased plastic sheet & roll it out into a very thin sheet.
Sprinkle the nuts & cardamom mixture evenly on top of the halwa.
Slightly roll it on top for the nuts so they stick to the halwa.
I used a pizza cutter to cut them into squares.
Drying time can vary, for me it took 2 days to dry completely & harden.
Break the pieces carefully,place the squares on a wax paper & store it in an air tight container.
