Tips to Make Delicious Lauki Halwa

1. Boil bottle gourd first in milk to bring the milky taste to halwa and get rid of raw flavor and smell.
2. Then cook in pure ghee by adding sugar, khoya, and dry fruits, this step helps to enhance the taste of halwa and reduces the cooking time.e
3. Avoid using bottle gourd that’s too sour or bitter, a slight tang is just fine.
4. Which will reduce after frying in ghee
5. Consuming bitter lauki is extremely dangerous, always wash, peel, and taste them before using...       

Wash and peel the bottle gourd.d

                   

Then grate it_Put the grated lauki into water it will prevent turns to blackish.

Bring it to a boil on high heat then cover the lid and allow cooking on medium-high flame Until milk dries out.

                 

Heat the ghee in the pan

                     

Then put boiled grated bottle gourd And fry with ghee on medium heat until the moisture dries up completely. It will take 7 7-1minutes to add green cardamom powder. 

                    

Once the lauki is sautéed add sugar to taste

             

Stir to mix well with lauki
