Flat aval - 4 cups

Ghee - 3/4 cup
Milk - 2 cups
Cashewnuts, raisins, almonds - a handful
Cardamom, powdered - two pinches

Cooking instructions
Clean the aval. Take 3 tablespoons of ghee in a kadai and fry the aval on a slow flame. Cool for a few minutes.
Add 2 cups of milk, stir and cook on a low flame. Slip in the saffron strands.
When the aval becomes a soft mass, add the sugar and ghee and keep stirring till the halwa leaves the sides of the kadai.
Remove from the stove.
Fry the cashew nuts, almonds and raisins and blend with the halwa. Alternately you could freeze a cup of mixed cashewnuts, raisins and almonds for a few minutes and powder them in the blender.
Add the cardamom powder and edible camphor (optional) and stir well.
Serve hot.
