This halwa or sheera is a common childhood favourite. Remember, well-roasted flour adds to the flavour of this halwa. Don't be afraid to brown it because after you add water, the colour will lighten. 

This particular recipe is from Mrs. Renuka Gandhi in Mumbai, India. The first time I tasted them, I couldn't believe they were homemade. Homemade gulab jamuns are usually hard on the inside. But these are just perfect.

Since she usually makes gulab jamuns in large quantities, Mrs. Gandhi had to revise her recipe a few times before she got the proportions right for a smaller number. And she did it all for KhaanaWaana so let's thank her! This recipe serves 15-16.

This is the recipe for a popular Gujarati snack shared by my dear friend Raj's mom. Healthy and delicious, Patra can be made ahead of serving time and simply heated for 20-30 seconds in the microwave and tempered once your guests arrive.
