Method: Cooking
Course: Sweets
Servings: 4-5 Perfect Squares & Some Small Pieces
Ingredients
2 and ¾cupsMango Pulp
1tablespoonGhee
Instructions
In a heavy bottom vessel (I used a small pressure cooker) add the ghee and when it is hot add the mango pulp.
Keep stirring the mixture every 10-15 minutes so that it does not stick to the vessel.
The mixture will reduce in quantity, there will be a change in color and after 45 minutes transfer this mixture to a greased (with very little ghee) plate. I used 2 and ¾ cups of pulp and it cooked down to ¾ths of a cup approximately. So a very small plate is enough.
I left the plate undisturbed for one more hour and then tried cutting it into pieces and it came out perfectly. Garnish it with nuts of your choice.
Notes
After cooking the sweet I googled Mango Halwa and found that it can be done even more quickly in a microwave oven. A couple of food bloggers have done it but nobody has sliced it. So I'm going to try that the next time.
I have an electric range so it has taken about 45-50 minutes for me. I think if cooked in a gas stove it should only take half the time.
You could use the entire can of mango pulp too, it will measure abut 3 and ½ cups. I reserved the balance to make mango milk shake and tofu-mango pudding. If you use the entire can, you would have to cook it for couple more minutes.
