Notes
- The halwa is very smooth, if you like a texture then add 1/4 cup powdered nuts to the jamun-water mixture then proceed with same steps.
- I felt the sweet was just right but if you prefer a bit more sweeter then add 3/4 cup sugar.It purely depends on the cane sugar variety you use.
- You can add any nuts of your choice either cashews,almonds or even pistachios.
I used homemade ghee so the flavour was too good.Use pure aromatic ghee for best flavour. - If you want chocolate flavoured halwa you can add 2 tbsp coco powder to the mixture.
