Daliya Ka Halwa Recipe, also known as Laapsi, is a traditional sweet associated with Rajasthani cuisine. In North India, I usually prepare daliya (broken wheat) with milk, which gives it a softer and more liquid consistency. Laapsi, on the other hand, uses water and has a drier, halwa-like texture.

I made this version of Daliya Ka Halwa for the first time, and I really enjoyed the texture and taste. If you love traditional Indian sweets, you can also try my Suji Ka Halwa Recipe.

Notes

I wrote Sugar (चीनी) to taste because some like very light sweetness and some love too much sweetness; so use according to your taste. As I doesn’t love too much sweeten dishes so in this Daliya Ka Halwa I use 3-4 tbsp. sugar (चीनी).
