besan Ka halwa | besan halwa with ghee residue | besan ka sheera with step wise pictorial and video method is here to make you drool. it is to be noted that this *besan halwa* is made with a difference, which you must have understood from the title.

It is such a yummy dessert which can be made with an ease. regular halwa of besan is made using milk but as we are having leftover residue after making desi ghee, also named as khoya, we have not used the milk. still the consistency and texture of this besan halwa is perfectly fine.

however this is not a compulsion to use ghee residue. if you are making this halwa not having ghee residue in hand, add about 1.5 to 2 cups of milk.

if there’s a question in your mind about the difference between halwa & sheera, let us make it clear that the difference between the both lies in their consistency only. when it is little thick, this is halwa & when it is thin & having flowing consistency, it is sheera. moreover at different states & cities, one thing is called differently hence not a big deal.

so if you want halwa (with milk), then add less milk & for sheera, add more. furthermore, besan ka sheera is considered as a good cold remedy during winters. serve hot before going for sleep at night.

so either with ghee residue or with milk, in any case besan ka halwa or besan ka sheera has the potential to make you happy.

the other recipes made by using leftover desi ghee residue are gajar ki barfi, custard flavoured paneer barfi, eggless oats cookies, Ladoo from leftover ghee residue, khoya paneer, khoya gulab jamun and bihari khasta thekua recipe.
