5 Genius Tips to Perfect Semolina Halwa with Dairy Milk Chunks A Sweet Party Delight

By Deepali Verma

Evenly Roast Semolina

On low to medium heat, mix the suji thoroughly until fragrant and golden brown. Uniform roasting develops a rich taste and avoids gritty texture.

Use Full-Fat Milk

Replace water with full-fat milk for a creamier foundation. It adds texture and prevents the chocolate from going grainy upon melting into the halwa.

Mix Dairy Milk Chunks Toward the End

Add the Dairy Milk when the halwa is nearly cooked through. This allows some pieces to remain a little gooey, with tiny little pockets of melted chocolate throughout each bite.

Use Sugar Judiciously

As Dairy Milk is sweet anyway, cut down on the sugar a bit. Taste along the way to ensure that the halwa isn't too sweet but rich enough.

Serve Warm for Best Texture

Semolina halwa becomes thicker when it cools down. Serve warm so the chocolate remains melted, and texture is soft and smooth. Heat gently if reheating is necessary.
