Just 3 ingredients, and voila! You’ve got a scintillating and decadently gorgeous Atta Halwa. As obvious from the name, the main ingredient in this North Indian style Atta Halwa Recipe is whole wheat flour (atta). Along with this, other ingredients are generous quantities of ghee and sugar to sweeten the dessert. Which also makes this Wheat Halwa really, really melt-in-mouth and taste oh-so-good! This recipe is easy too. So, whether a special occasion, a festive celebration or just another day, this halwa is apt to add some sweetness to your day.
The Atta Halwa is also a recipe that really gets quickly, within 15 minutes flat. While you are roasting the whole wheat flour, the sugar syrup gets done and comes to a rolling boil.
Later, you just add it to the golden atta with a nutty fragrance and keep stirring it till the halwa gets to a semi-thick or thick consistency. The texture of this Wheat Flour Halwa is just like the Suji Ka Halwa.
There’s another popular variation of the Wheat Halwa, called the Kada Prashad which is served in gurudwaras, not just in Punjab, but all over the world for its divine taste. This Atta Halwa Recipe results in a smooth, soft and moist textured halwa, which is the same case with the kada prashad as well.
