Ripe Yellow Pumpkin( Grated) - 3 cups Sugar - given below Khoa - given below Cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp Nutmeg powder - ½ tsp Saffron - ¼ tsp(warm & powder) Ghee - 2 tbsp Chopped nuts - 2 tbsp Pressurecook the freshly grated pumpkin without adding water in a pan for 1 whistle. Cool, open & squeeze & discard the water. Measure the squeezed pumpkin by volume. Take 1/3 of that volume, each khoa & sugar. Mix everything & cook on a pressurepan, stirring well, till halwa consistency is reached. This is best done in a microwave, checking every 7,8 mts whether the consistency is reached.
