The best way to use the seasons abundance is make an Apple Halwa. Delicately flavored with the flavors of cardamom & saffron and sweetened with jaggery, this halwa give a sweet ending to any meal.
I prepare a huge stock of Apple halwa when apples are in season. It is so simple to prepare and does not need any special ingredients. As you all know, I like to keep my dishes simple, easy and less time consuming. Well , when one is working, you need to be that.
So the main ingredients apples. Now what kind of apple works for this recipe? Any kind. But I prefer using Irani Apples. They are bit on sweet side. And it also reminds me of Kashmiri apples back home. So I think Irani apples are best substitute for Kashmir ones
