Vanilla ice cream meeting a warm, ghee-roasted halwa is one of those combinations that feels obvious only after you've had it.

· The method
- 0:00
Take the ice cream out of the freezer. You want it barely scoopable by the time the halwa is ready.
- 2 min
Tear the Moong Dal Halwa into a small non-stick pan on the lowest flame. Stir constantly — it catches fast.
- 4 min
When the halwa pulls away from the sides and the cardamom hits, remove from heat.
- 6 min
Scoop the halwa into a wide bowl while still warm. Add the ice cream alongside — not on top, so it doesn't melt instantly.
- 7 min
Scatter crushed pistachios and a thread of saffron. Serve immediately.
