Halwau-E Aurd-E Sujee

Categories: Candies, Afghan
Yield: 1 servings



1 c Sugar
2 c Water
3/4 c Ghee
1 c Coarse semolina (farina)
1/4 c Pistachio nuts -- blanched
1/4 c Almonds -- blanched & Slivered
1/2 ts Ground cardamom or to taste
1 ts Rosewater -- * see note Additional nuts to decorate



Combine sugar & water in saucepan & stir occasionally until dissolved, over medium heat. Bring to a boil, & boil briskly for 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat & leave aside in pan.

In a deep heavy pan heat ghee & add semolina. Stir over medium heat for 5 minutes. Semolina should not color.

Pour hot syrup into semolina, stirring constantly. When smoothly blended, reduce heat & leave to cook, uncovered, until liquid is absorbed. Mixture should be thick but still moist at this stage. Stir in nuts, cardamon & rosewater to taste.

Cover rim of pan with a cloth or 2 paper towels, put lid on tightly & leave on low heat for 5 minutes. Turn off heat & leave pan undisturbed for 10 minutes.

Spread halwau on a flat, lightly oiled platter & decorate with nuts. Serve warm or cold, cutting pieces into diamond shapes or squares.
