Steps
Prepare the syrup: combine the sugar and milk in a bowl. Since the source does not specify that it should be boiled, simply prepare the syrup at this stage.
Combine the butter and vegetable oil in a large pot, then add the flour.
Toast the flour patiently over low heat. As it slowly toasts, it should loosen in texture and darken in color; continue toasting until the flour has darkened completely.
Gradually add the prepared milk syrup to the toasted flour. After each addition, stir continuously to incorporate the syrup into the halva.
Continue stirring to prevent lumps and allow the mixture to slowly thicken until the syrup has been fully absorbed. The final consistency should be silky and cream-like.
Serve the halva.
Notes
The source does not specify whether the syrup should be boiled, the toasting time, or the serving temperature. It particularly emphasizes patiently toasting the flour over low heat until it becomes completely dark, then gradually adding the syrup while stirring continuously.
