Labelled as the Nizam’s favourite sweet, the Jauzi Halwa at Mohammedi Confectioners in Hyderabad is the stuff of legends with the shop dating back more than 100 years. The roots of the sweet lie in Turkey from where the owners had migrated.
This specialty sweet isn’t for the light hearted. It is Made using lots of ghee, sprouted wheat flour, milk, saffron, a special spice and nuts, cooked on low flame. The spice that is added to this Halwa makes its taste very distinct- Nutmeg or Jauz. My favorite part about this halwa being that it is light on sugar, with layers of flavors. While you might not be able to try it out at Hameedi in Hyderabad, here’s my version of Jauzi Halwa
