Carrot Halwa (Gajar Ka Halwa)

Carrot Halwa or Gajar Ka Halwa is a very popular dessert. I believe many of you would have already tasted this dish. It is rich, nutritious and equally yummy. If you haven't tasted this, do go ahead and give a try. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.


Ingredients :


Carrot - 4 medium sized (After grating, this measured about 4 cups)
Ghee   - 4 tbsp
Milk    - 1/4 litre
Sugar  - 2 cups
Powdered cardamon - 1tsp
Dry fruits(Cashew, Badam, Raisins etc) - 2 tbsp

Procedure:


Grate the Carrots and keep them aside.


 Heat 2 tbsp Ghee in a thick-bottom Kadai. Add dry fruits and fry them.


Now add the grated Carrot and fry them in medium flame till they shrink in size. Keep stirring and ensure that the Carrot doesn't stick to the bottom of vessel.


Add Milk to the mixture. Simmer and let the Carrot cook in milk completely. Wait till all the Milk is absorbed and Carrots become soft.

 

Add Sugar, powdered Cardamon and keep stirring. Cook for 3-4 minutes till all the moisture in the mixture dries up.  Finally Add 2 tbsp Ghee to the mixture.Put the mixture in serving bowl and garnish with dry-fruits.


Carrot Halwa is now ready to serve :) .
