Halwa Puri is a traditional and popular breakfast dish in South Asia, especially in Pakistan and parts of India. It’s a combination of fluffy puris (fried bread) served with a rich, sweet carrot halwa (also known as gajar ka halwa). The contrast between the savory puris and the sweet, creamy halwa makes for a comforting and indulgent meal, typically served during festivals or special occasions.
