- Roast the suji till it becomes golden brown on a low heat and stir it very frequently.
- When the suji turns golden brown and gets a glossy texture and does not stick together that means it is fried enough.

- Meanwhile take another pan and boil 1½ cups of milk. When it gets hot add sugar and stir very well. Cook it on a low flame.
- Now its time to add the milk mixture and crushed cardamon into the suji. While adding the mixture keep stirring the suji mixture for avoiding forming lumps in the halwa.
- Let the mixture boil on simmer and gets a creamy consistency.
- Keep stirring your halwa continuously otherwise it may get burnt from the bottom.
- Cook the mixture until it becomes thick and begins to come away from the edges.
- Turn off the heat, put it on a serving bowl and garnish it with chopped dry fruits and raisin.

Tips:
- Do not cook your Halwa on a very high flame, it will burn your dish.
- If any lumps form make sure to break them with the back of the stirring spatula.
