Papaya fruit is called 'Papita' in Hindi. Hence the in Hindi, it is papite ka halwa. Papaya halwa - Fruit Dessert Indian festivals are incomplete without a "halwa". It is a historically interesting preparation showing a cultural span towards a number of countries in the Middle East and Europe , percolating all the way to India and its neighboring countries.
Instructions to make Papaya Fruit Halwa:
- Wash and peel the papaya. This weighed about 800g. Remove the seeds and cut into small pieces. You can also grate it, I felt lazy to wash the grater so kept it that way :-)
- Grind the almonds into coarse powder. I prefer keeping it coarse as it gives the halwa a good texture.
- Heat ghee in a pan. Add the cashews and raisins and fry. When the raisins expand like balloons and the cashews turn golden remove them from the pan. Keep them aside.
- Cook the papayas for 15-20 minutes. Keep stirring in between, mash them as they become soft (not needed if you have grated the papaya)
- After the papayas are cooked well, add the powdered almonds and stir. Add the condensed milk too.
- Check the sweetness and add sugar if needed. The papaya was not very sweet so I added just about 2 tbsp of sugar.
- Cook for another 5 minutes. Then add the elaichi powder. Add a few drops of rose essence. This is completely optional and can be avoided. Mix well.
- Garnish with the fried cashews and raisins. Remove it into a clean serving bowl.
- Garnish with the remaining fried cashews and kishmish and other nuts as you feel like.
