Lauki halwa is a classic Indian dessert (gluten free) made with bottle gourd and sugar, drenched in the richness of ghee and tinged with cardamom powder.
Can I add some more dry fruits?
Add about 1/2 to 3/4 cups water with lauki , mix well and cook in pressure pan for about 2 whistles.
Once the steam is released, open and cook the bottle gourd on medium high until most of the moisture evaporates.
Add jaggery and 2 tablespoons of ghee and mix well. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens and starts leaving sides of the pan; add more ghee if you want a richer halwa.
Stir in cardamom powder and give it a good stir. Remove from heat.
In a small saucepan, heat rest of the ghee and add cashew nuts; fry until light golden brown. Add fried nuts into the halwa and mix well. Transfer into serving bowls, garnish with additional cashew nuts and serve hot or cold.
