Dudhi halwa always seems to be overshadowed in India by the popularity of gajar halwa, a dessert prepared with carrots. But not anymore! This halwa does not require as much cooking time as gajar halwa and is also an allowed food on fasting days in India. I like the way my mother-in-law sets it in a flat dish until it solidifies and then cuts it into neat squares and serves it with style.
