Atta Halwa, got in Gurudwaras is a favourite in our home. Every year on Guru Nanakdev jis birthday, my mum would make a big batch to be distributed in our local temple.
Sharing her recipe here..

Add elaichi powder.
Add the flour.
Stir fry till on low flame for about 20-25 minutes till it turns dark brown and gives out aroma.
Beware not to.let it stick to the bottom or sides so as not to burn it.

Cook Till the water is absorbed.
Add the almonds and sugar.

The sugar will dissolve due to the heat.
