Tomato Halwa

I want to make something different and ended up in making this recipe. As we all know, tomato is an anti-oxidant and fights against cancer. It helps in reducing the blood cholesterol. Also it is a good antiseptic and the pigment improves eye – health. It helps in combating hypertension, urinary tract infections and is rich source of minerals and vitamins. Ooh everyone will be tired of reading this long intro.

INGREDIENTS

Tomato puree- 1 cup

Sugar- 1 cup

All purpose flour -1/3 cup

Ghee- 4 Tbsp

Cashew, badam- few (break into pieces)

Take a heavy bottomed vessel, add ghee, fry the cashews and badam.
Once it turns brown add tomato puree and sugar
Stir it continuously until the sugar gets blended with the puree.
Now add the All purpose flour and mix well without forming lumps.
Stir without leaving your hand until it thickens and reaches the right consistency.
Now pour it in a greased plate, make pieces and enjoy with your loved ones.

Note: You can also use corn flour instead of All purpose flour.

Also your favourite essence can be used.
