Kathal Haleem/ Veg Haleem



Haleem is a very delightful dish.  Usually haleem is prepared with lentil, broken wheat and meat or chicken. During Ramadan mostly cooked in Muslim's house. Some people add dry fruits also. Haleem flavored with lots of whole garam masala and ghee cooked over a very low heat for long time.
