For the flavouring:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green cardamom powder- 1\/4th<\/sup> tsp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the lacing:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Silver Leaf (Chandi Ka Warq)- 1 small sheet<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almonds, slivered- \u00bd tbsp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pistachio nuts, slivered- \u00bd tbsp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shave the bhutta (Corn on the cob), only to get the kernels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blend the corn kernels till a smooth pur\u00e9e \/ paste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a heavy-bottomed kadhai add desi ghee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once it is hot, add the paste and cook for 2 minutes over ahigh flame, stirring it continuously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lower the flame to a medium heat, cook and occasionally stir it for another 15 minutes ensuring that it does not burn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the ghee starts oozing out of the paste add hot \/ lukewarm water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be careful at this stage as the halwa has the tendency to splutter, you may cover, and then open and stir till a little water is absorbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add sugar and green cardamom powder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mix well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let the sugar melt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the halwa thickens and you can see the ghee oozing out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Switch off the flame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serve hot in dessert bowls, laced with silver sheet and garnished with slivered almonds and pistachio nuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chef Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. You may add saffron strands, if desired.<\/li>
  2. Do not add too much of flavourings as it might mask the delicate flavour of bhutta.<\/li>
  3. You may add milk instead of water.<\/li>
  4. You may add grated khoya, if desired.<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
