Ingredients
  1. 250 grams of Chana Lentils (Chanay Ki Dal)
  2. 250 grams of Jaggery (Gur) (grounded)
  3. 5 Cloves (Loung)
  4. ½ cup of Coconut (Khopra) (grated)
  5. 3 tbsp. of Poppy Seeds (Khash Khash)
  6. 1 cup of Clarified Butter (Ghee) or Cooking Oil
  7. 50 grams of Cashew Nuts (Kaaju) (sliced) (for garnish)
  8. 50 grams of Sultanas (Munnaqay) (for garnish)
Method
  • In a dish soak the chana lentils for atleast 1 hour. Add 4 cups of water to it and cook it in the pan until it is soft. Set it aside and let it cool.
  • Powder the poppy seeds and the dry coconut. Heat 2 tbsp. of the ghee or oil in a non-stick pan and deep-fry the cashew nuts and sultanas. Drain out the ghee or oil and set aside.
  • In the remaining ghee or oil, while it is still on the fire; add the cloves and the boiled chana lentils with water. Add the powdered poppy seeds and the dry coconut. When it starts boiling add the jaggery. Keep stirring until it turns dark brown. When all of the water evaporates, it will come to a soft consistency.
  • Finally garnish with the cashew nuts and sultanas.

When i noted that thew recipe of chanay ki daal ka halwa i feel the sweet smell of this halwa. This is my most favorite halwa, i want to prepare in in home but the cutting of this halwa is very crucial.

In Shab-e-Baraat, chanay ki daal ka halwa is prepare in every home but I never make this halwa, I only use basen instead of daal. I will make in the upcoming Shab-e-Baraat.
