Notes

• While setting in plate after flipping,shape the halwa into that bowl or round shape with a good knife or silicon spoon.
• No need to fry bread too much,if you fried too brown,halwa becomes brown in colour.
• Or if you need brown halwa,you can add jaggery or brown sugar instead of white sugar.
• Enjoy with your family

Happy Diwali in advance
