Arrowroot Halwa


Arrowroot is  neutral tasting powder, doesn't give any flavour to the dish prepared. Arrowroot had loaded with many health benefits like its very low in calories, rich source of vitamins, minerals, Protein etc.


Ingredients :
Arrowroot : 3 Cups
Jaggery powder : 1 Cup
Fresh Coconut (Grated) : 1 Cup
Ghee : 2 - 4 Spoons
Water  : As Required

Method :
  1. Heat 1 spoon of ghee in a pan, add grated coconut, fry till they turn golden brownish.
  2. Add jaggery powder & 1/2 Cup of water.
  3. Bring to boil. Continue heat till one thread consistency.
  4. Add 2 cups of water to arrowroot powder, prepare batter like dosa batter consistency.
  5. Now add arrowroot batter to Jaggery syrup.
  6. Keep stirring continuously till mixture leaves the side of the pan.(If required add 2 spoons of ghee & keep stirring.)
  7. Transfer the mixture to greased plate .
  8. Let it cool & give desired shape.
  9. Serve.
Notes :
  • You can add any flavour like cardamom powder. To retain jaggery flavour I have not added other flavouring agent.
  • Adjust jaggery according to your taste. The above ingredients make mild sweet halwa.
  • You can even add dry fruits.
