## Notes
* firstly, make sure to filter out the pineapple pulp from the juice, else the halwa will not be glossy.
* also, adding ghee is optional. however, it will give a nice glossy shine.
* additionally, make sure to keep stirring else the mixture will stick to the pan and burn.
* finally, **pineapple delight** or **pineapple halwa** turns hard if overcooked and sticky if undercooked.
