Papaya halwa dish with step-by-step photos– yes a halua made from papaya. I had 3 raw papayas which I have kept over-the-counter for ripening. One of them looked ripened but when cut, it was half-ripe.
A few days back, I had asked my mother what can be made with ripe papaya and she had suggested papaya halua. So instead of making any kind of sabzi or mix-fried recipe with the semi-ripe papaya, I made the halwa … And I was in for a shock. The halua was damn excellent. I can not tell you exactly how good the halwa was.
You have to attempt making the halwa to trust what I am claiming. normally, we consume sliced papaya or have them in fruit chaats or a fruit salad or papaya lassi. I never recognized that papaya would be so excellent in a halwa.
