- 2 cup Mango Pulp
- 1/2 cup Jaggery
- 3/4 cup Fresh coconut
- 1/4 cup Rava (semolina)
- 1/4 tsp cardamom powder
- 3 tsp Ghee
Take mango pulp in a mixer and whirl it for minute to get thick mango puree. Transfer the puree to a pan and add jaggery to it.
Stir the mixture in medium flame for about 10 minutes. The jaggery melts and combines well with mango puree. When the mixture becomes slightly thick include coconut.
Continue cooking coconut in medium flame with constant stirring for about 5 minutes. Next include rava and cardamom powder.
As you cook with constant stirring, the mixture comes together like mass. Add ghee at this stage and keep mixing. After few minutes the mango coconut halwa leaves the pan. Right then switch off flame.
Now transfer halwa mixture to the tray lined with parchment paper and spread evenly. Let it rest for 20 minutes to harden. After that mark pieces and relish.
