Notes

  1. Always grind and prepare almond milk; then prepare halwa. It helps for a smooth texture
  2. Use a wide heavy-bottomed nonstick pan. Keep mixing to avoid halwa from turning brown
  3. If you keep halwa in the same pan it thickens and alters the texture so always transfer immediately
  4. IĀ used parchment paper to wrap the halwa but you can also use butter paper. Avoid cling wrap
  5. Always wrap when Halwa is warm else halwa texture might change
  6. You can also soak almonds, remove the skin and prepare halwa
  7. Halwa stays good for 3-4 days in room temperature, Refrigerate for longer shelf life
  8. Food color is optional
  9. overcooked halwa turns gooey or make burfi like texture so after halwa thickens cook in low flame and turn off at the right consistency
