For this contest I'm sharing Sooji ka halwa Or Samolina pudding. Its a part of cultural cuisine of Pakistan, Bangladesh and India. Its history is quite long in 13th century this recipe is travelled from Persia to india through Ottoman Empire.

In Pakistan Sooji ka Halwa is made on different occasions. In my family culture it is always made when a woman give birth a baby. For celebration this is made and distributed to other family members too.

On other occasions like on 15th Shaban its tradition in many Muslims community they made this halwa in large quantities for distribution.

In my family on weddings it is made in mayoo function with bbq. This is used as breakfast in our culture and often used as starting feed for infants of age 6 months. My childhood is passed eating this halwa . When i was a kid this halwa was a feast for me. I give salmonila pudding to my kids too . My son and youngest daughter loved it.

So there are many occasions when we specially made sooji k halwa.
