It\u2019s one of Vinay\u2019s favourite dessert so I making it often these days. This can be made using milk or without milk, me and Vinay personally like without added milk version more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Halwa is so delicious and melt in the mouth texture. There were a few requests for the recipe of ash gourd Halwa hence I made it again and this is first sweet dish to prepare  this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recipe is very easy to make and for sure you won\u2019t believe that the Halwa is made from ash gourd(I didn\u2019t believe long back when I had it). Also in this recipe I have not strain the grated ash gourd. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Serve Kashi halwa as a naivedya during festivals or offer to deities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>INGREDIENTS:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>White Pumpkin- 1 cup(grated)<\/li><li>Sugar &#8211; 3\/4 cup<\/li><li>Cashews &#8211; 6-7 broken<\/li><li>Cardamom powder &#8211; 1\/2 tsp<\/li><li>Kesari \/ saffron &#8211; generous pinch <\/li><li>Raisins &#8211; 6 <\/li><li>Ghee &#8211; 2-3 tbsp<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3>METHOD:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>First, rinse and remove the seeds and then chop it in large\/small pieces so that you can easily grate.<\/li><li>Grate the ash gourd I have used one cup of grated ash gourd.<\/li><li>Add the grated Pumpkin, along with juice(don\u2019t strain it) and saute till raw aroma goes away and close the lid.<\/li><li>Do check every 4-5 minutes. It has enough water to cook in its own juice.It may take around 10-15minutes.<\/li><li>Now add sugar and mix it well.<\/li><li>Then add generous pinch of saffron strands. Saffron strands are used to give a nice yellow or orange colour and also for aroma. If you don\u2019t have saffron then skip it or use an orange natural colouring extract.<\/li><li>Mix saffron and sugar very well. <\/li><li>Keep on stirring the halwa mixture in low flame. <\/li><li>Once the mixture start thickens and leave the sides of the pan keep stirring it often.<\/li><li>Then add ghee and mix well.<\/li><li>Saute on a low flame till the halwa starts separating from the pan. It takes 2-4minutes.<\/li><li>Then switch off the flame add cardamom powder.<\/li><li>In a small pan, add 1 tsp of ghee add cashews saute till cashews turn light brown and then add raisins till they swell or puff up. <\/li><li>Add this to halwa and mix well.<\/li><li>Let the kashi halwa cool down a bit and then serve or also at room temperature. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9PaKW\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326492656_17ab7de002_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9QhvP\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326710497_c4d03e2e89_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9QhCH\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326710897_cf49cf38a8_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9PaE5\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326492316_07093347cb_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9Qhw5\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326710512_c272218983_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9PaLH\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326492701_04c62b789b_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9PaLs\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326492686_985febd3fc_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9PaDy\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326492286_223af13b52_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9Qhxc\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326710577_742dd960c4_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9PaCG\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326492236_865a31bdf0_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2i9QhqZ\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/49326710217_b829864024_c.jpg\" alt=\"Kasi halwa\" width=\"606\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4>NOTE:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>If you prefer richer or greasy version for 1 cup you can add 5 tsp of ghee. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>If you try any of my recipes do tag me on Instagram @wompindiacooks or do comments below.
