This incredibly delicious dessert comes from the north western state of Rajasthan in India and is eaten by the people of this desert region on special occasions. An exotic dessert, Moong Dal Halwa is a sweet blend of lentil, milk and sugar, cooked to perfection, and garnished with saffron and cardamom. Ghee (clarified butter) gives it the typical rich, creamy flavour.
Moong Dal Halwa is best eaten warm. But is equally delicious when served as a dessert with vanilla ice cream. |
