How to make Pumpkin seed halwa with step by step images

1. Soak pumpkin seeds in water for 1 to 2 hours. Soaking is a compulsory step which helps in grinding the seeds so don’t skip this step.
   
2. Now in a blender add soaked pumpkin seeds into paste adding little water. I used around ¼ cup water for grinding. Do not add too much water while grinding.
   
3. Heat ghee in a nonstick pan/ kadai, to it add the pumpkin mixture. Mix the mixture well and soon you will find a crumbled texture  (just like paneer crumbles).
   
4. Now to the crumbled mixture add milk and mix well. Allow the mixture to cook well in low to medium flame until the mixture becomes dry. I put lid on while cooking the mixture. This should take about 10 minutes.
   
5. After 10 minutes of cooking when the mixture looks dry add sugar, mix well and the mixture will get little water and again it will get dry. Cook for 2 minutes.
   
6. After 2 minutes of cooking add ghee to the mixture. Cook for 1 minute and the halwa will start leaving the pan/ kadai which means halwa is ready to be served.
