Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan and roast the semolina over medium heat until it turns light golden and aromatic.
In a separate pan, bring water (or milk) and sugar to a boil.
Slowly pour the sugar mixture into the roasted semolina while stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Cook for 5-7 minutes until the halwa thickens. Stir in the cardamom powder, cashews, and raisins.
Serve warm, garnished with extra nuts if desired.
