Semolina Halwa Delight: A Classic Indian Dessert Recipe

    Had a ball making this very satisfying pudding! I did the brown version & had more than enough mixed nuts that I'd toasted several days before making this! I did leave out the saffron, though another time I intend to include it just to check on the difference! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
