How to make Badam(Almond) Halwa
Boil 2 cups of water and add badam to it. Let it boil for 5 mins. Allow it to cool.
Peel off the skin by pressing the badam.
Grind it by adding milk. Add milk little by little so that u get a good paste. It should neither be too watery nor too hard.
Soak saffron in 1/2 cup of hot water for 10 minutes. You will get a lovely yellow colour.
Now mix one cup of sugar to 1/2 cup water.
Add the saffron water to it.
Allow the mixture to boil. Keep stirring till you get a single thread consistency.
Now add the badam paste. Keep stirring so that no lumps are formed.
Add little ghee from time to time. Continue the process(15 to 20 min approx.) till the mixture thickens.(At a point of time u will find stirring difficult and everything will roll together)
Remove from fire.
Grease a plate with ghee. Transfer the mixture to the plate.
Spread it neatly
Allow it to cool for 5 mins.
With a knife make the shapes you wish to get.
Refrigerate for 5 mins. Just check if ur shapes are proper else repeat it with the knife.
Again refrigerate for 20 to 30 mins. Now u can remove the pieces off the plate.
Badam Halwa is ready to serve!!!!
