• Gram lentils ½ kg soak for 6 hr
• Sugar ½ kg
• Ghee 1 ½ cup
• Milk 1 litter
• Green cardamom 4 crushed
• Green cardamoms ground 1 tsp
• Khoya ½ cup
• Almonds blanched and sliced 3 tbsp
• Pistachio 3 tbsp
• Yellow color pinch
• Silver paper as required

Boil the ½ kg soaked lentils in 1 liter milk till the milk dries and the lentils are tender.

Allow the lentils to cool and blend. Heat 1 ½ cup ghee in a pan and add 4 crushed cardamoms along with the ground lentils, and fry well for at least half an hour till light brown.

Then add in ½ kg sugar and continue to cook, the halva looks thin at this time.

Keep frying well till it leaves ghee at the sides of the pan.

Add ½ cup khoya and fry for another 10-15 minutes.

Remove in a flat platter, sprinkle 3 tbsp blanched almonds and 3 tbsp pistachios.

Top with silver paper and cut into pieces.
