Yellow moong dal | पीली मूंग दाल 1 cup
Sugar syrup
Sugar | शक्कर 1 1/4 cup
Water | पानी 1 litre
Green cardamom powder | इलाइची पाउडर a pinch

Method:
Wash the yellow moong dal well to remove the dirt, further pat dry and allow to dry for a while.
Now set a non-stick pan and dry roast the washed moong dal on medium heat until its completely dry and the colour changes slightly.
Once roasted well, transfer over a plate and cool down completely, further transfer it in a grinding jar and grind to make coarse powder, it should not be too coarse just the powder has to be little grainy. Keep it aside to be used for making the halwa.
For the sugar syrup, add water, sugar, green cardamom powder & saffron strands, mix well and bring to a boil, once boiled switch off the flame and keep it aside to be used later in making the halwa.
