Ingredients:

• Dates (without seeds) – 180g
• Semolina – 65g
• Condensed Milk – 397g
• Sugar – 200g
• Chopped Cashew – 100g
• Vanilla – 01 tsp
• Salted Butter – 01 tbsp
• Fresh Milk – 50ml

How to cook:

First dry roast semolina few minutes until you get the semolina smell.

Then combine sugar and condensed milk in a pan. Add fresh milk into the condensed milk tin and stir well to get all remaining milk in the tin. Pour this to the same pan.

Heat the mixture in medium heat until sugar dissolves.

When sugar dissolves add roasted semolina and chopped dates. Heat the mixture while stirring continuously.

When the mixture becomes bit thick add vanilla and chopped cashew.

When the mixture starts thickening add butter. Always make sure to keep stirring until you get the pan out of the stove.

When the mixture becomes to a level that it doesn’t stick on our pan get it out of the stove and quickly transfer the mixture onto a prepared board. If you heat the mixture more than this level your aluwa will be harden.

Now flatten the mixture and cut into desired shapes before it gets harden.

Let aluwa cool down completely and separate pieces. Store them in an air-tight container.
