For Making The Orange Pulp
Start with peeling the oranges and then removing the seeds properly.
After that chop the orange segments into smaller bits and add them into a blender.
Blend it properly to get that pulpy consistency. You can also add a little water to help them blend properly. Remember not to add excess water as it will become juicy.
For Making The Orange Halwa
First, take a medium-sized pan and heat it. Then add ghee followed by almonds and cashews. Cook for 30 to 40 seconds.
Next, add suji and store well. Allow the suji to get cooked and have that crunchy type of texture.
Now add cardamom powder followed by saffron milk into the pan. Combine everything properly and turn off the heat.
Take another deep skillet and heat it. Add orange pulp and stir well.
Add the sugar and mix well. Cook properly to let the sugar melt and let the mixture come to a boil.
Next, add the orange pulp mixture to the suji and combine well.
Continuously cook the orange halwa on medium to high flame to enable the water to evaporate entirely.
Your orange halwa is prepared. To garnish, just add some orange juice & chopped dry fruits on top of it and enjoy!
- You can also use brown sugar instead of using white sugar for a healthier option.
- Adjust the proportion of orange pulp to balance the sweetness according to your preference.
- In some cases, suji tends to absorb more water. So, you will have to add water to the halwa as per the softness you want.
- Also, you can store the orange pulp for about 1 or 2 days.
