PAAN SHEERA

Sheera or halwa is traditional Indian sweet. Rava sheera/suji halwa is one of the sheera/halwa which is often prepared in my kitchen. Apart from the classic rava sheera, I have tried variations in flavours in this sheera.
Today, I have prepared Paan sheera for Holi festival. This twist in the classic sheera turned out so good and in result an aromatic and delectable sheera is here. People who loves paan, will definitely love this sheera.
