There are a few daily staples without which our dining table looks incomplete - a fresh loaf of bread is definitely one of the items in that coveted list. You need it every morning, and sometimes in the evening too. Bread is so versatile that it often leaves us wondering if we utilise it enough? You can use it for delicious toasts, cutlets and sandwiches, but did you know that you can use a handful of them to rustle up bread poha, bread upma, bread rasmalai and bread halwa as well?! You would be glad to know that it does not take much time and effort to make bread halwa at home; you also do not need any exotic ingredients to make yourself a portion of this interesting dessert.
India's love affair with halwa is no strange fiction; however, it does make for an interesting tale. Halwa is not originally an Indian dessert; our festive-favourite happens to have either Arab or Turkish origins, if the legends are to be believed. However, the dessert travelled across regions and became a mainstay in India. We have an exquisite variety of halwas - from gajar ka halwa to moong dal halwa, to badaam halwa and to lauki halwa. We have the capability to pretty much turn any vegetable, dry fruit, lentil and nut into a scrumptious halwa. So why leave out the humble bread? Here's a step-by-step procedure on how you to make bread halwa at home.
