6. Stir the mixture continuously and sauté on low flame till the mixture leaves the pan. I’ve just added sufficient ghee for the flavour. If you prefer more ghee can be added.

7. Switch off the flame and spread the mixture with ladle. Slice them to get burfi shape pieces using a knife.

8. Now the delightful and healthful sweet potato halwa loaded with dry fruits is ready to serve hot. It can be served hot , warm or cold too. Garnish with dry fruits and serve.
