Tirunelveli halwa is shiny brown jelly like fudge . Traditionally made with samba wheat variety. This halwa is do famous that it turned to be a dessert symbol of tamil nadu .it has even got its places in tamil songs. And thirunelveli is the district where its been originated and still made. One cant return from that place without tasting it. And still the place buzzes all day to have hot halwa with mixture served in bananaleaf. Locally its called iruttu kadai halwa (dark shop halwa) . Making at home requires lot of courage after all i attempted it with our home grown wheat which is not samba wheat was a night mare to me. Since i badly craved for it... Collected lot of details, advice and reference from different places and made it was so so good. Do not alter the measurements since it works like baking .:).
