My entry to the e-book is Kadu ka halwa...

Kadu ka halwa is quite quick to make with very less ingredients.My kids and myself love this and when ever i lay hands of fresh kadu(sorakaya) i end up doing this.This recipe i adopted from punjabi recipes.


Ingredients:-
Kadu/Soorakaya/Bottle gourd (peeled,de-seeded and grated) 2 cups
Almonds/badam 8-10
Milk 1/2 cup
Ghee 1/4 cup
Sugar 1/2 cup (can be increased and decreased based on once taste buds)
Elachi 1 (powdered)


Method:-

Heat ghee in a non stick pan.Add the grated kadu and saute till kadu is partially cooked.
Now add milk and cook until kadu is tender,which may take around 5-7 minutes.
Add sugar and mix well.Let it cook on slow flame for about 4-5 minutes until the water evaporates.
Sprinkle grated almonds and serve hot.
