Ashoka Halva, halva, Moong wheat flour halva


Ashoka halva it is known as was introduced to me by my Aunty, Kunchamma Nochur.  When she came to our house with her daughters and grand daughter, she brought the same for us.  I liked  it very much and immediately noted down the recipe.  It is a month back but could not make it.  However, being Ananth Chaturdasi on 18th Sept 2013, we left our office early due to Ganesh Immersion, I reached home early.  So I decided to spent some time to make this sweet as my daughter was also craving for some sweets.
