Halwa poori is a traditional Pakistani and Indian breakfast that features semolina pudding or halwa and a soft fried dough called poori. Halwa is typically made with a mixture of fried semolina and sugar syrup, which is then combined with nuts such as pistachios and almonds.
The sweet dish is flavored with aromatics like green cardamom pods, kewra essence, and cloves, and it is usually enhanced with yellow or orange food coloring for a more vibrant dish. Poori is a soft and fluffy fried bread consisting of a dough made with flour, water, salt, and oil.
It is shaped into a thin, flat disk, and then usually deep-fried until it puffs up. Fresh and hot poori is traditionally accompanied by sweet semolina halwa or sooji halwa. Other typical accompaniments to halwa poori include aaloo ki bhaji, which is a flavor-packed potato dish, and cholay
