This is a very popular halwa eaten in and around the areas surrounding Udaipur. Here corn is extensively cultivated especially white corn while yellow or sweet corn is grown at a few places.
I prefer the taste of sweet corn in this recipe as compared to white corn but you can use either. This halwa is simple to prepare and superbly flavoured.
