Tips to Make Delicious Lauki Halwa
First, boil the bottle gourd in milk to infuse a creamy flavor into the halwa and eliminate any raw taste or smell. Next, cook it in pure ghee while adding sugar, khoya, and dry fruits. This step enhances the flavor of the halwa and reduces cooking time.
Be sure to avoid using bottle gourds that are too sour or bitter; a slight tang is acceptable, but consuming bitter lauki can be dangerous. Always wash, peel, and taste the bottle gourd before using it. Wash the bottle gourd.
Then grate it. Put the grated lauki into water; it will prevent turns to blackish.
Crush and chop the almonds and pistachios.
Transfer all grated bottle gourd into the pan, then add milk and water
together along with green cardamom, then mix very well.
Bring it to a boil on high heat, then cover the lid and allow
cooking on medium-high flame until the 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
Keep mixing until the sugar is dissolved. Keep the flame medium-low
Put khoya and chopped nuts.
Keep on stirring until everything is mixed very well; at this stage, kewra essence can be added.
Halwa is ready off the flame.
Transfer to the serving dish/plate or bowl. Garnish with khoya and crushed nuts.
Serve hot or chilled as you like, but I prefer to serve hot halwa with coffee, Kashmiri
tea,
