Suji Halwa, a popular dessert in South Asian cuisine, particularly Indian, is made from semolina (suji), clarified butter (ghee), sugar, and water or milk. Typically flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts like almonds or cashews, its rich texture and aromatic taste make it a favorite at festivals and celebrations. Suji, being a good source of energy, provides essential carbohydrates, while the addition of nuts contributes healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. However, ghee and sugar also make it calorie-dense, which can be a concern for individuals monitoring their fat or sugar intake. Milk-based variations add calcium, enhancing its nutritional profile slightly. While eaten in moderation, Suji Halwa can be a comforting treat, but its indulgent ingredients mean that portion control is key to maintaining balance in your diet.
