In a separate pot, bring water and milk to a boil.

Gradually add the boiling liquid to the roasted semolina, stirring to prevent lumps.

Add sugar and continue to cook, stirring until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in cardamom, salt, and lemon juice for flavor.

Add food coloring if desired, mixing well to incorporate.

Fold in chopped cashews, almonds, and raisins for texture.

Continue to cook until the halwa pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 5 more minutes.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.
