Gajar ka Halwa (Carrot Halwa)



Ingredients

2 cup grated carrots
2 cup full-cream milk
1 cup milk powder
1 cup sugar (to taste)
1 tablespoon sliced nuts (Cashew nuts, almonds and pistachio)
1 tablespoon raisins
½ cardamom powder
1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter)

Method

Heat the milk in a Kadhai/wok.
Add grated carrots and cook them at a medium flame till the carrots get well cooked.
Keep stirring in between so that it doesn’t burn at the bottom of the kadhai.
Now add milk powder and mix it well so that no lumps are formed.
Add sugar, raisins and ghee. Cook it over a slow flame till the content becomes thick in consistency and the ghee starts separating. Keep stirring.
Now add sliced nuts and cardamom powder.
Pour the halwa in a serving dish.
Garnish it with nuts.
Serve while hot.
