Hello Aunty, I tried to cook the halwa but I think i rushed it and now it still tastes raw. Is there anyway that this can be fixed?
Swetu, after adding the water it becomes hard to cook, a suggestion I have not tried but I think this should work spread halwa over microwave safe plate and cook 2 minutes stir and again cook for 1 or 2 minutes. let me know if it worked

Manjula Ji Namaskar I have been looking & of course cooking a lot of recepie from Ur site. Thought of adding something new to Ur collection.
Moog Dal ka halwa can be made very fast (faster than Ur way) at home – I give U hint of it – Rest U can expand
Instead of soaking daal – Dry Grind it in normal kitchen grinder, cook well (till light golden brown) in Ghee (as we do for atta halwa) & then pour in mixture of Water & milk (equal quantities) and cook ir further.
The cooked dal absorbs it all very fast. Feels like heavily mixed Khoya.
Try it! Its so fast to cook. 5-7 min in total
