Ingredients for lauki halwa Recipe

  • 1/5 g Dudhi Bhopala (Lauki / Bottle Gourd)
  • 1/5 gms Sugar
  • As Required Cashew nuts
  • 40 gms Mava (Milk Solids)
  • 1/5 Tsp Cardamom powder
  • a pinch Salt a pinch (to taste)
  • 1/5 g Desi Ghee (Clarified Butter)
  • 1/10 cup Milk

Directions: Lauki Halwa Recipe

  • STEP 1.Wash, cut and grate Dudhi Bhopala (Lauki / Bottle Gourd). Remove seeds, if any. Do not grate peels.
  • STEP 2.2. If you are not making Halwa immediately after grating, add water to grated Dudhi so that it will not turn brown.
  • STEP 3.3. In a thick bottom pan, heat Ghee.
  • STEP 4.4. Squeeze water from Dudhi, measure Dudhi and add it to the pan and sauté for a minute
  • STEP 5.5. Cook covered without adding water till Dudhi is soft. Keep stirring after every 3-4 minutes.
  • STEP 6.6. Add Milk. Cook for another 10 minutes.
  • STEP 7.7. If you have 4 cups of grated Dudhi, take ¾ to 1 cup of sugar. Add sugar to Dudhi. Mix and cook without lid.
  • STEP 8.8. Mixture will release water. When you cook further, it will start thickening.
  • STEP 9.9. Loosen Mava (Milk Solids) in a plate. When water almost dries from the mixture, add Mava to the pan. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps of Mava.
  • STEP 10.10. Add salt (I add salt in almost all sweet dishes except Basundi/Rabdi, it enhances the taste; If you don’t like salt, don’t add).
  • STEP 11.11. Add Cashew nuts and Cardamom powder; Keep cooking.
  • STEP 12.12. When all the water evaporates and Halwa becomes thick, switch off the gas.
  • STEP 13.13. Dudhi Halwa is ready. You can enjoy Dudhi Halwa hot or cold. Store it in refrigerator. It will last for 5-6 days.
