Badam Ka Halwa/ Almond Pudding

Last Updated on

Today I post “Badam Ka Halwa
in the Blogging Marathon 20, under Ganesh Jayanti special. This festival is celebrated
in whole but especially more attraction in Maharashtra regional. Under this
recipe, we used blanched almond paste which cooked in ghee and milk for preparing
Halwa form. Its taste is really amazing and you can made almond fudge or badam
barfi also with same thick consistency cooked almonds mixture, for fudge just
grease the plate and spread equally on plate. Cut it into diamond or square shape.
Almonds are the king of nuts which is great source of calcium, 26%
carbohydrates, Vitamin E and they are also rich of minerals and dietary fiber.
Potential health benefits, which have not been scientifically validated,
include improved complexion and possibly a lower risk of cancer. Preliminary
research associates consumption of almonds with elevating blood levels of high
density lipoproteins and lowering low density lipoproteins.
