Cuisine:
Ingredients
-
1 medium sized AppleI used Shimla apple
-
1/4 cup Almonds
-
2 tbsp Milk Powder
-
1/3 cup Sugar
-
1/4 tsp Cardamom Powder
-
1 tbsp Ghee
-
10 Almondssliced
Directions
Next in the series of apple desserts is Apple almond halwa. You must have already tasted apple halwa and almond halwa and the combination of the two takes this dessert to a new level.
This Halwa like the other two apple desserts is again fairly easy to dish out and does not consume more time. The Almonds which are soaked, ground to a smooth paste gives the flavour and richness to the texture of the Halwa. Further, the addition of the Milk powder enhances the taste and texture.
If there are apples at home crying for attention, then this is another way of using it judiciously. Of course you do need to keep an eye on the fat and sugar that you might consume . So my advise is always to make in small quantities so that you do not over eat and cause harm to your lovely self instead taste and relish very little quantity and enjoy eating delicacies and continuing to live healthy too
