Suji Halwa – Rava Sheera

Suji Halwa, also known as Rava Sheera in some regions of India, is a beloved Indian dessert made with semolina (suji), sugar, ghee, and water or milk. This sweet dish is a staple at Indian homes during festivals, religious ceremonies, or special occasions. Its smooth, creamy texture and rich flavor have made it a favorite across generations. Whether served as an offering to the deities or enjoyed as a dessert after a meal, Suji Halwa holds a special place in Indian cuisine.

Our Suji Halwa is made with love and attention to detail right here in New Zealand. We use high-quality, locally sourced ingredients to bring you the authentic taste of this traditional Indian dessert. Suji (semolina) is carefully roasted in pure ghee until it turns golden and aromatic. The roasting process gives the halwa a nutty flavor and an appealing texture. Then, the roasted suji is slowly cooked in a mixture of sugar and water or milk, creating a perfectly smooth and creamy consistency. A pinch of cardamom is added to enhance the flavor, giving it a delightful fragrance that complements the richness of the dish.

One of the standout features of our Suji Halwa is that it’s made without any preservatives or artificial additives. You can enjoy the pure, natural taste of this dessert without worrying about artificial ingredients. Whether you’re serving it during a religious festival or as a sweet treat for your family, our Suji Halwa is a wholesome, delicious option that delivers the authentic flavors of India.

Its simplicity makes it versatile, and its rich, comforting taste makes it a hit with people of all ages.

We prepare this delightful sweet fresh in New Zealand, ensuring that every bite you take is packed with authentic flavors.
