Custard powder halwa


Ingredients:

Custard Powder - 1 cup ( I used vanilla flavoured)
Sugar - 3 cups
Water - 4 cup
Cashewnuts - 15 chopped finely
Ghee - 3 tblspn


Method:

Take a heavy bottom pan, add in custard powder, sugar and water,
Mix well so now lumps are formed..
Now put this on high heat and keep whisking till it is thick, glossy and jelly like.
Now use a spoon to mix and put the heat on medium heat.
Add a tblspn of ghee and keep mixing..
After 3 mins add another tblspn of ghee and mix well.
Now it will get thick and non sticky. Add in another tblspn of ghee and keep cooking.
At one stage the halwa will leave the sides of the pan. at that point add in cashews and mix well.
The halwa will look non sticky, it will leave the pan, it will be thick and glossy, and the ghee will ooze from the sides of the pan.
At this point pour this into a greased pan and set it in fridge for 1 to 2 hours.
Once it is set, invert it to a cutting board and cut it into slices.
Serve.
