Pista halwa/ Pistachio halwa is a delicious Indian dessert prepared with pista, milk, sugar and flavored with cardamom powder. Pistachio halwa is a rich and delicious dessert.
Pistachios are not only tasty to consume but are highly nutritious too. Adding in our diet once in while is good. We all have relished pistachios roasted, pesto sauce, katli, so thought share our version of pistachio dessert.
It is usually prepared at my MIL place during Eid. So thought to share this dimple yet delicious halwa recipe in the blog too.
This pistachio/ pista halwa can be prepared quickly with handful ingredients only. For this halwa I used regular sugar as it tastes good with that. We have never experimented making this halwa with jaggery. As the halwa loses its appetizing green color. Also I have not used khoya/ mawa in this recioe as I wanted to replicate my home style recipe here.
I have earlier shared recipe of Akhrot halwa which I prepared with jaggery. The procedure is almost similar; except pista halwa has soaking time. This pista halwa can be served in bowl or cut into squares and served.
So let’s get to the making of pista halwa!!!
