Ingredients
- Fresh alphonso mangoes - 2
- Sugar - 1/2 cup

Method
Step 1
Wash and remove the pulp out of the mangoes. Grind the mango pulp in a mixer into a fine paste.
Step 2
Heat a pan. Add 2 tablespoons of ghee. Add mango pulp and sugar and mix well.
Step 3
Cook on a low flame for 20 to 25 minutes stirring in between.
Step 4
Once the mixture leaves the sides of the pan and becomes little thick, it means that the halwa is ready. There will be a slight change in the colour.

Add cardamom powder and remove from the heat.

Grease a plate with ghee. Pour the mango halwa in the plate and allow it to set for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
