You can say this is a specialty of Attock district and KPK.I am giving you authentic recipe of Mukhadi which i have learned from a villager.I have selected this dessert for your eid menu because this is a delicious combination with BBq dishes.Try this in BBq parties you will love it.
INGREDIENTS:
Semolina/ Suji/ Rava | 3 cups |
Sugar | 2 1/2 cups |
Cardamom | 4 nos |
Ghee | 1/2 cup |
Water | as needed |
Nuts | as needed |
METHOD:
- Soak suji in water , after 1/2 hour drain excess water. (you can soak in milk also but take milk 4 cups)
- In a kadai or pan add ghee and cardamom , let it crackle and add sugar .
- Stir constantly till sugar dissolve and transform into caramel.
- In the beginning you will face difficulty in mixing because sugar will form lumps but after few minutes you will able to handle it easily.
- Leave it on very low flame because it will take 40 -45 minutes to cook perfectly. So time to time just stir it.
- When ghee separates add nuts and serve hot.
- You will feel crunch in the halwa , basically this is a key of perfect Mukhadi.

Hi,
Thank you so much for this delicious recipe. I do have a query. Can we substitute ghee with oil and will it give the same result?
Thanks ?
No oil will not give you perfect taste.
