Measure jaggery,ghee and wheat flour. If using jaggery powder, heat the jaggery powder with ¼ cup of water in a saucepan until it melts completely. Switch off the flame once done and set aside. In a thick bottomed pan, heat and melt ghee.

Add in the wheat flour and roast it in low medium flame for 10 minutes until golden brown and nice aroma comes.

Once the wheat flour is roasted well, add water. stir it quickly. Keep stirring it continuously until the water is completely absorbed and it comes altogether. It may take 3-5 minutes in low flame.

Then add jaggery water or syrup,now the halwa starts liquidized. Keep stirring continuously. When the halwa forms a whole mass and doesn't stick to the pan, add ghee fried cashews or almonds if desired. Switch off the flame once done. It hardly takes only 2-3 minutes after adding jaggery.
