Nice one, Ken, because you put less sugar and oil in --- I learnt it as 4-3-2-1 : 4 cups water, 3 cups sugar, 2 cups semolina and 1 cup oil and of course it was delicious but I like your recipe. I'd like to add that once it has cooled completely, putting it in the fridge and serving it nice and cool is, for me at least, heaven! Bravo sou, Ken!♥
Great recipe Ken , you're right it is very simple . Thank you for sharing . Cheers from Australia
That was my dad’s favorite quick desert! He liked it serve hot as soon as it was done in a bowl with some pecans and cinnamon over it and of course a big glass of ice water. Then the rest I would plate up and cut into pieces for the next day! Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Ken! ..... Yes!, finally, a recipe for halva ( or halowa, as I was raised to call it ). This is such a treat, though I have always taken it sparingly, given its high sugar content. I'll be substituting raw sugar for the white, and hopefully will suffer no adverse change to the taste ( I don't think I will ). As always, all the best from Australia mate. Thanks.
Awesome!!! Thanks very much..... 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This looks great Ken. I’ve made this before. I found my recipe from a really old Greek cookbook that uses a little milk in the simple syrup and butter instead of oil to toast the semolina. Love this rustic sweet dessert!
You and me both Mike!!!
I really like the way you communicate! I can’t wait to try this!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thank you for sharing! X
Thank you very much Christine for your comments and kind words!!! Very much appreciated.... 👍🙏🏼💪✌️❤️🙌
That's an Indian desert! We use ghee and just add sugar after semolina and not sugar syrup. End it with loads of nuts like almonds, pistachios and some raisins and some saffron water for the color. So lovely to see different cultures crossing paths!
So very true Mansi!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Happy Greek Easter.
Thank YOU Karen:-))))
traditional greek desert goes well with greek coffee

Hey Hi Hello 😀😀😀😀😀
Greeks don't garnish? Ela, re Ken! Olives or parsley on tzatziki, parsley and flowers on Easter eggs....I could go on. The Greeks INVENTED garnishing! 😊
Ken i am familar with Halva. It is sold in most stores that carry Arabic food Staples and i have had it in the Middle East but i have never made it myself You are right it is sinful and additive lol My question is do you refridgerate it after you make it to set it or just leave it to thicken on the counter? Thanks Ke,n. Another quick and delicious recipe
Hey Nancy,
Great to hear from you as always:-)) You can do whichever. Boils down to how much room you have in your fridge LOL. Thanks again....
Cheers,
Ken🇨🇦
Many thanks!! I have to give it a try..lol
👍👍👍
THANK-YOU for your receipt i was going to ask you if i could use almond because one of my n
You’re welcome Angela:-)))
I have to use polenta instead of semolina being a coeliac.
Intestering video. There's a very similar recipe in Jewish cuisine that's also called Halva, but that one is based on sesame and is (to my palate anyway) nauseatingly sweet.
Very similar recipe Gayle. There’s a version of this in the Mediterranean, Middle East and North Africa....
I've seen this as far as Germany, but the german version is sunflower seeds
hey there...love your videos but i was wondering where you or your roots are or come from...Kalamata maybe?
Haha close. About an hour west of the olive capital of the world....
@@KensGreekTable im from around the Krokee area myself...we may be related
😂😂😂👍👍👍
Strange Halva that one 🤯

Will any kind of semolina flour work?
I use a coarser semolina. If you do semolina flour, it will be like cement...
Ken Panagopoulos what kind should I get ?
I usually get the “whatsonsale” brand as long as it’s not too fine.... lol

The entire world knows about this Recipe
except some changes in methodology.
