Halva is a type of confectionary that is popular in the Middle East, Central Asia, and India. It is made from a variety of ingredients including semolina, nuts, and seeds. The most common type of halva is made with semolina, butter, and sugar.
Heat the oil and cook the semolina in the oil until golden. Place the almonds to brown with the semolina. In the meantime, warm the water, but do not boil, and dissolve the sugar in it and throw in the lemon and the cinnamon stick. Pour the water into the semolina mix and stir well while pouring. Keep heating until the mixture becomes thick. Pour the mix into a Bundt pan and garnish with sesame seeds and cinnamon. Let stand and serve at room temperature.
