Indian Cooking Recipe : Banana Halva Ingredients : 6 big bananas 2 pav sugar 12 tbsp ghee 4 cardamom pods Method : Peel banana and cut thinly. Cook along with sugar, turning over constantly, till the blend becomes semi-solid. Mix ghee. As soon as lump is formed and the blend gives off the absorbed ghee, test a sample (as in the case of 'wheat halva') to make sure that it does not stick when pressed between fingers and thumb. Then add powdered cardamom. Transfer the halva to a thali smeared with ghee, and flatten it with a spatula. Cut into pieces after an hour.
