How to Make Badam halwa

• Take the blanched almonds and some milk in a food processor and grind it to a coarse paste. Use milk as much as needed.
• Take a non stick pan. Pour about 2 tbsp of ghee and when warm, add the almond mixture.
• You can add remaining milk, if any, now and the saffron.
• Cook the mixture on medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring all the while to avoid sticking to the bottom.
• In the beginning, the mixture will keep sticking to the pan, hence constant stirring is required.
• Now add the sugar to the mixture. Mix well.
• The mixture will become a little thinner now.
• Cook for another 5-10 minutes until you see the mixture boiling.
• Add the remaining 1 tbsp of ghee and saffron at this point and keep stirring for some more time.
• You know it's done when the mixture comes together into one thick lump and stops sticking to the pan.
• In about 30 minutes the halwa is done.
