#AAM26 This Mango Halwa (also known as Mango Sheera) is a vibrant, velvety dessert that perfectly captures the essence of summer. It combines the tropical sweetness of ripe mangoes with the comforting, nutty aroma of roasted semolina and ghee. Garnished with delicate saffron strands and crunchy slivered nuts, it is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate.
Heat the ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-low heat. Add the semolina and roast, stirring continuously, until it turns aromatic and a light golden brown.
Carefully pour the hot water (or milk) into the pan while stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Cover and cook on low heat for 2–3 minutes until the semolina absorbs all the liquid and becomes soft.
Stir in the sugar and the fresh mango puree. The mixture will loosen slightly as the sugar melts. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the halwa starts leaving the sides of the pan and the ghee begins to separate.
Add the cardamom powder and half of the nuts. Give it one final mix and turn off the heat.
Transfer to small bowls. Top with saffron strands and the remaining slivered nuts .
