Nothing is more delicious than a warm bowl of Halwa. With a dough base made primarily of wheat flour, Atte Ka Halwa – Instant Pot Kada Prashad has more nutrients than the typical refined white flour. And most importantly, it’s incredibly simple with minimal ingredients.
What is Atte Ka Halwa – Instant Pot Wheat Flour Halwa – Kada Prashad?
Atte Ka Halwa literally means whole wheat flour dessert. It is a sweet fudgy dessert pudding. It is usually served as a food in a gurdwara (a place of assembly and worship for Sikhs). Typically, the actual recipe demands equal portions of whole-wheat flour, clarified butter, and sugar. However, I have reduced the amount of sugar and clarified butter to make it healthier. You can increase the amount of sugar to 1 cup and ghee to 1 cup if you’d like.
What ingredients do I need to make Atte Ka Halwa – Instant Pot Kada Prashad?
Whole wheat flour, sugar, clarified butter (ghee), raisins, cashew nuts, water, and ground cardamom.
And, an Instant Pot of course.
How do I make this recipe?
Firstly, select sauté on the instant pot and add 2 cups of water. Once the water boils, add in the sugar and mix well until the sugar dissolves.
Remove the water and sugar mix and keep it a bowl aside. Rinse and clean the pot well.
Next, select sauté on the instant pot and adjust to normal. Then, add in ghee to the pot.
When the ghee is hot, add in whole wheat flour, and stir well.
Keep stirring continually for about 10 minutes until the color changes from light brown to golden brown.
Further, add in the water and sugar mix, ground cardamom, roasted cashews, and golden raisins. Keep stirring until all the water is absorbed. Roughly for 2 minutes. Sauté until some more ghee oozes out of the sides of the halwa.
Transfer the cooked halwa to a serving bowl.
