Apple Suji Badam Halwa

I was thinking after long times I planned to prepare this dessert to my son especially for mother’s day. He is not interested to have more fruits. That’s why I prepared halwa by using apples and nuts, and also o he liked it very much.

 I would like to suggest you all, in case if they don’t eat any veggies or fruits you can add, while preparing some sweets or some other dishes.

I have added fried cashews, badam and raisin. When you have this halwa with crunchy nuts, definitely you’ll like it.
