Step 1

In a bowl, mix cornflour with 1 cup of water until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain. Set aside.

Step 2

In a pan, combine sugar and 1 cup of water. Boil until the sugar dissolves completely. Add lemon juice to prevent crystallization. Lower the heat and stir in food coloring, if using.

Step 3

Gradually pour the cornflour mixture into the sugar syrup, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Keep stirring on low-medium heat until the mixture thickens and turns glossy.

Step 4

Add ghee, one spoon at a time, and continue cooking until the halwa leaves the sides of the pan. Stir in cardamom powder and half of the chopped nuts.

Step 5

Transfer the halwa to a greased tray or plate. Sprinkle the remaining nuts on top and let it cool for 2-3 hours. Once set, cut into squares or diamonds and serve.
