In Greek: χαλβάς, pronounced hal-VAHS. This recipe for halvas calls for (передбачає, вимагає, необхідність) almonds and raisins, and the result is a delightful pudding, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon. A Lenten (тих, хто поститься, вегетаріанців) favorite, halvas contains no eggs or dairy products. And as there are few teachers here in our office (Yappi) who are feasting this spring, I feel my duty (обов'язок) to made one more recipe dedicated to “no-dairy product” cousin.
