Instructions
Grease an 8×8" square baking tray with ghee and set aside.
In a mixing bowl add cornflour, one cupof strawberry puree and one cup of water. Mix well to combine and make a lump free smooth batter.
In a wok or pan add sugar and a cup of water. Let it cook until sugar is melted.
Once sugar is melted add the cornflour batter slowly, while stirring continuously into the sugar syrup.
Cook on low heat, stirring continuously until the cornflour starts thickening.
As the cornflour starts thickening, add a tablespoon of ghee and stir to mix the ghee completely with cornflour mixture.
Repeat the same step one more time and in all add 2 tablespoons of ghee.
Once the ghee is absorbed by the cornflour mixture, cook on low until it becomes transparent.
Finally transfer the halwa into the prepared baking tray.
Let it sit for about 3-4 hours at room temperature.
Once set, remove from the tray and cut into square pieces.
Wrap them in baking paper sheets and store.
