Bread Halwa

Bread halwa is a very old dish; I think may be as old as bread itself. It might have been someone's intelligent idea to use up the bread which otherwise be wasted. What do you know the last 4 slices which go into garbage otherwise converted into this mouthwatering yummy desert. Lets thank the unknown inventor of this desert.






Ingredients:-

Bread- 4 slices
Pure ghee- 3 Tbsp
Milk- 4 cups
Cardamom powder- 1 pinch
Sugar- 1/2 cup( or according to taste)
Cashews- 2 Tbsp
Raisins- 1 Tbsp

Procedure:-
1. In a pan, add 1 1/2 Tbsp ghee and fry cashews and raisins. Keep them aside.

2. Now tear the bread into pieces and add them to the same pan. Fry them in the left over ghee. Once they are nice and light golden brown, add milk and cardamom powder. When the milks starts boiling, add the sugar and let the mix reduce to desired consistency.

3. Add the remaining ghee at the end. Mix in the fried cashews and raisins and serve.

Bread halwa tastes good when served warm.
