Suji ka halwa is your classic everyday delicious North Indian sweet made with fine semolina or cream of wheat (farina), sugar, ghee, nuts and flavored with cardamom powder. In Maharashtra, this sweet is called as Sheera. Semolina is called as suji, sooji or rava. This easy melt-in-the-mouth halwa recipe comes together in about 15 minutes.
Suji Halwa is often called Rava Sheera or simply Sheera in many places. Slice or chop Cashew nuts, Almonds and Pistachio into small pieces. Take 1.5 cups of water in utensil and put it on a gas on high flame. Heat it up until it starts to boil and then turn off the gas. This water will be used later while cooking Suji Halwa.
The color of the suji or rava should not become brown. There will also be a fragrant aroma of suji and ghee in your kitchen. Roasting suji takes approx 7 to 8 minutes on a low heat. This step is important because if sooji is not roasted well then you will not get the perfect texture in the halwa. There will be a slight raw taste in the halwa.
Serve sooji halwa hot or warm or when cooled at room temperature. It can be had as a sweet snack or served as a dessert after meals. Store any leftovers in the fridge in an air tight container for 1 to 2 days. Reheat in a pan for while serving. Type of suji: Use the fine variety of suji for making halwa.
