Bread Halwa

One unique thing about muslim weddings, the wedding lunch menu remains the same. Its briyani ( veg and non veg) , the brinjal side dish and bread halwa. My favorite part ofcourse is Halwa . I learnt to make the perfect bread halwa in a Briyani Workshop conducted by Chennai Food Guide. It did give me the confidence to make Briyani and the Bread Halwa .

On to the recipe now.

Ingredients 

Bread - 1 full packet ( milk bread )

Oil for deep frying 

Khoya - 1 cup 

Sugar - 2 cups

Ghee - 3 tbsp

Dry fruits - 1/2 cup

Method

 

Cut the bread into small pieces

Deep fry them in hot oil and set it aside on a kitchen paper

You can alternatively roast the bread in an oven until its golden brown in color

 

In a heavy bottomed wok, heat the ghee and fry the dry fruits in it.

Slowly add the fried or baked bread followed by khoya and sugar.

 

Please take care to adjust the sugar according to the taste of the khoya that you are adding

 

Keep a low flame and keep stirring well until all the ingredients blend well.

The choice of dry fruits is entirely to suit you taste and to make the dish more rich in taste and texture.
