Coconut Rava Halwa is a nutty delicious halwa you can make with fresh coconut. This halwa is quite easy to make and gets done quickly. With so many festivals and poojas, this sweet makes an apt Naivedyam.
I have mentioned about our handmade clippings and files that we have been safekeeping for over 20 years now. Though its been our wish to try out all the recipes from those files, we hardly ever find time to cook all those recipes. However, once in a while we take out a file and check out the recipes.
With so many festivals always coming around, we tend to check out for new dishes to make and offer as Neivedyam. This March we have Holi and Ugadi to celebrate. While we have always either played Holi at office or joined our community celebrates, Ugadi is always a grand celebration at home. This being our Telugu New Year’s day, we make elaborate feast and after pooja, we partake the food. Amma normally makes some payasam or halwa. This Coconut Halwa turns out to be an excellent choice to make for Ugadi. Not to mention the fact that this stays good for over a week when you can enjoy a small portion everyday.
We are starting the March BM#86, week 1, where I will be sharing some Festival Dishes this week.
