To begin making the Kerala Style Rice Halwa recipe, heat 1 tablespoon ghee in a pan. Add broken cashew nuts and fry till they start changing colour. Transfer them to a plate and keep aside.
Extract thick and thin coconut milk and keep them in different bowls.
Add grated jaggery, coconut milk, to a thick bottomed pan or uruli. Heat this mixture until the jaggery melts completely. Strain it to remove impurities.
Clean the pan and add the mixture back to the pan. To this add rice flour, little at a time and mix well without lumps.
Cook this mixture on a medium flame, until it starts thickening. Keep stirring in order to avoid sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Once you find that the mixture starts thickening, reduce the flame to low, and add the thick coconut milk. Mix well.
Keep stirring continuously. When it starts thickening, add 1 tablespoon of ghee.
Keep stirring and cook for another 30 - 35 minutes. Whenever you find the halwa sticking to the sides of the pan, add 1 tablespoon of ghee to the sides of the pan.
Cook until the mixture gets a halwa consistency and starts leaving the sides of the pan. Add roasted cashew nuts at this stage and mix well.
Spread the halwa onto a greased plate and allow it to cool. Once cool, cut it into desired shapes and serve.
