There have been days when i thought what next fruit to make into a halwa. Not that I particularly like Halwas but there is things fixation on making a halwa that comes with a deep fitted passion of getting a halwa done. I love Tirunelveli and Calicut halwa but well it is not an easy task to make. One can get settled down with something else in most cases right. I and my hubby loved this one as we both have a sweet tooth and enjoy most of sweets and dessert. We loved the slightly tangy flavour along with sweetness. But my kids did not have much of this dessert. But if you love both pineapple and desserts, then you might love to try this one!! Do try this for a change.
