ABOUT Bombay Halwa RECIPE

Karachi halwa is basically a chewy subcontinent desert prepared with corn flour, sugar, ghee and flavoured with cardamom and dry nuts. A popular and easy sweet recipe prepared especially during indian festivals like Diwali and Navratri. Karachi halwa could be easily shared with friends and family because of longer shelf life compared to other indian desserts. I have always been huge fan of halwa recipes. I still remember during my school days, as i use to buy this halwa in a local bakery for one rupee. Moreover, it was sold with variety of colours including lemon yellow, orange and red colour. I always belived it was an plant extract and never knew it was prepared from corn flour.
