HALWA DESSERT
This is a semolina halwa based on a recipe issued by the Indian Government more than 45 years ago. It is simple, buttery and not too sweet. We prefer this family favorite to other versions, such as those posted on Recipezaar, which you should try also. We hope this version will be your favorite, too.

Steps:
- Boil the sugar, water and saffron together to make a light syrup, set aside.
- Melt the ghee or butter in a deep pan over medium heat, blending in the farina and stirring constantly so that the mixture will not burn.
- Add the sultanas and almonds.
- Within 3 or 4 minutes, the mixture should be a light brown.
- Add the saffron syrup (use caution as it will splatter) and continue stirring constantly.
- Turn the heat to its highest and cook quickly until the mixture is the consistency of mush and the ghee just begins to separate.
- Remove from heat immediately, and allow to cool.
- Serve hot or warm as a dessert.
