Categories Dessert

Time 20m

Yield 15-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 cup best quality olive oil (or you can use a combo of 1/2 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup corn oil or butter, anything totalling 1 cup)
2 cups fine ground semolina
1 cup chopped walnuts or 1/2 cup pine nuts
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
2 cups milk
coarsely ground walnuts or pine nuts, toasted
sesame seeds, toasted (optional)
cinnamon

Steps:

Dissolve the sugar in the water and milk and bring it to a bare simmer.
Boil for 5 minutes and remove from heat.
At the same time, brown the semolina in the oil on medium-high heat, stirring continuously.
This should take 4-5 minutes. Add the nutmeats for the last 2-3 minutes to toast them slightly.
When the semolina has taken a golden brown colour, add the syrup to it (taking care not to burn your hands, as this bubbles and steams up excessively- be prepared!), turn down the heat and keep stirring until you get a kind of thick porridge. Continue cooking until the mixture is very thick and pulls away from the sides of the pan as you stir.
Spoon into a buttered or oiled bundt pan and pack down with the back of a spoon. Let it cool. (I use a silicone bundt pan for this - eliminates the need to grease, and my halvah comes out in a pretty pattern).
Unmold onto a platter and sprinkle with more walnuts, toasted sesame (optional) and cinnamon.
You should not put this dessert in the refrigerator.
It can keep for a few days outside the refrigerator, assuming you can gather enough will power not to eat it all at once.
Some oil may start to drain off after a day or so, but this is to be expected, just dab it away with some kitchen paper.

To prepare this delicious Greek halva recipe, start by preparing the syrup. Add all the ingredients into a pan over high heat and bring to the boil. Boil until the sugar has dissolved and the syrup slightly thickens. Set aside, but keep warm.
In the meantime, roast the almond silvers into the oven at 180C. Although the traditional Greek halva recipe doesn’t include almonds, it’s always a nice addition, which gives extra flavour and crunchiness.
Heat the oil in a large pot and add gradually the semolina. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon to allow the semolina to absorb the oil. When the semolina starts to bubble, turn the heat down and allow to toast until golden (whilst constantly stirring). The more you toast the mixture, the darker it will become. Just be careful not to over toast it, as the semolina will burn and the halva will become bitter.
Remove the pot from the stove and pour in, slowly, the warm syrup. Don’t forget to remove the lemon peel, cinnamon and clove!
