Also known as Tusha Shinni, this is a classic Bangladeshi dessert.
Ingredients:
140g plain flour
200g butter or ghee, melted
200g sugar
250ml water
2 small cinnamon sticks (about 3cm long)
2
green cardamom pods
2 cloves
Method:
Melt the butter in a medium pan. Add the cardamom pods, cinnamon sticks and cloves and fry until lightly golden and aromatic. Whilst stirring constantly, pour in the flour. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the mixture is red-gold in colour.
In another pan, bring the water to a boil then pour in the sugar to make a syrup (if this looks to thick then add a little more water).
Pour the syrup over the 'halwa' mixture and stir until smooth. Take off the heat and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm.
