Gehun Ka Sheera or Wheat Flour Halwa



Gehun ka Sheera or Wheat Flour Halwa  is nothing but a halwa made of wheat flour. It is very delicious and easy to make. It can be made instantly whenever you feel like eating something sweet at home.

Ingredients for Wheat Flour Halwa Recipe
Wheat - 100 gms.
Ghee - 60 gms. (a little more than 1/4 cup)
Sugar or Jaggery - 100 gms. (1/2 cup)
Cashews - 20 (chopped)
Raisins - 25-30 (separate the stems)
Cardamom - 5-6 (chopped)

Method - How to make Wheat Flour Halwa
Sieve the flour and roast it in a pan with 1/2 tea spoon ghee till it turns light brown in colour on a medium flame.

Take out the roasted flour in a plate. Now pour water and sugar/ jaggery into the pan and let them boil. The quantity of water should be thrice the quantity of the flour. Once the sugar/ jaggery dissolves into the water put flour into it and stir slowly and continuously with the spoon. Mix chopped cashews and raisins into the halwa and mix well. Keep on stirring the halwa so that it don’t stick at the bottom of the pan.

Once the halwa gets thick in consistency pour the remaining ghee into it and cook the halwa while stirring continuously. Turn off the flame and mix cardamom and ghee into the halwa.


Wheat Flour Halwa is ready. Take it out in a serving bowl and garnish with chopped cashews and pistachios.
