ಜೋಳದ ಹಾಲು ಬಾಯಿ | ಬಿಳಿ ಜೋಳದ ಹಾಲ್ಬಾಯಿ |
A very happy DEEPAWALI to one & all
A healthy, guilt free sweet fudge/steamed cake recipe, made using the milk extracted from the soaked raw/whole Sorghum/Jowar/bili jola.
Below I have the recipe explained with step wise procedure pics. We normally make this fudge/haalbai using whole wheat or ragi or rice & coconut or rice flakes.
But today I tried making this recipe using whole Sorghum/Jowar/bili Jola and it turned to be too yummy, tasty. So one more healthy recipe addition to my sweets category. I insist do make this, kind of a healthy sweet to celebrate Deepavali
It might be my innovation, as I have never heard or seen anybody mentioning about this sweet

Ingredients : measuring cup used – 250 ml, makes 12 pieces of below shown size
- Soaked whole sorghum/Jowar/mekke jola – 1/2 cup
- Jaggery – 1/2 cup (tightly packed)
- Water – 1&1/4 cup
- Cardamom powder – 1/4 tsp
PROCEDURE :
- Soak the sorghum in enough water for overnight (I have soaked 1/2 cup cup of it, but it has become more in quantity after soaking, So I have measured and took exactly 1/2 cup)


- Heat and dissolve jaggery by adding 1/4 cup of water (just dissolve, no need to thicken the syrup), strain into a pan


- Grind the soaked jowar using 3/4 cup of water very smoothly, strain into the same pan, rinse the mixie jar in the remaining 1/4 cup of water and also add this to the pan, put cardamom powder as well

- Now cook on medium heat by stirring continuously until the mixture becomes thick and leaves the edges of the pan and comes as a whole



- Transfer to a wet plate and let it sit for 1/2 an hour, cut into desired shape and the sorghum milk fudge/jolada haalbai is ready to be relished on



Today I paired this with Potato/aloo/alugadde bonda(made in appe pan)
