Mango halwa

As a family, we seem to have gone off mangoes, so when I saw a recipe for mango halwa, I thought it was a good way to use up the stray fruits that were lurking around in the fridge. Using the original as a base, I tweaked the recipe to my taste, and was quite satisfied with the results.

1 cup sooji
2 1/2 tbsp ghee
1/2 cup milk
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 mango
1/2 tsp cardamon powder

Method:
Dry roast the sooji till the raw smell goes. Add ghee, and fry on a low flame till golden brown.
Meanwhile peel and slice the mango, and make puree.
When the sooji is golden, add milk and water, and cook till most of the liquid is absorbed.
Add sugar, stir well, and cook till it all comes together.
Add mango puree, stir well, cover and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add cardamon powder before serving (if you are using it). You can also garnish with dry fruits.
