Rajgira or Ramdana is one of the commonly used ingredients in fasting days. Besides Rajgira kheer, Paratha or poori you can also make Rajgira halwa.
Some people use Rajgira flour for halwa but I am using puffed Rajgira along with boiled potato.
Usually it is flavored with cardamom powder but I am flavoring it with camphor in very little amount, it gives a very nice aroma , I always use camphor to bring flavor in my Prasad panjeeri.
When you use Rajgira flour for halwa it sticks to the pan but puffed Rajgira does not.
