Winter Warmth: Nourish Your Body with Traditional & Healthier Halwa Recipes

  • Made with ghee, nuts, grains, and root vegetables, they provide healthy fats, carbs, and micronutrients for body heat and joint health.
  • Make halwas lighter by reducing refined sugar (use dates, jaggery), slow cooking, and using moderate ghee or coconut oil.
  • Explore reinvented classics like Almond, Carrot, Moong Dal, Atta, Millet, Sweet Potato, and Date halwas for varied benefits.
  • Enhance experience with garnishes like nuts, saffron, rose petals, and serve with herbal teas or protein for balance.
