Ingredients -
2 tbsp Ghee
1/4 cup Cashew nuts
1/4 cup Raisins
2 cups Grated Carrots (or beetroots)
2 cups Milk
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 tsp Cardamom powder
Preparation -
Take the ghee in a wide pan. Add the raisins and cashew-nuts and fry them slightly till the raisins pop up and the nuts are slightly brown
Add grated carrots and saute them for about 15-20 minutes.
Pour the milk on top, mix and allow to cook setting the flame to low. Add more milk, as required, to allow the carrots to be cooked. Check on status every 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add sugar once the carrot are cooked and mix well.
Allow to cook till the ghee separates.
Sprinkle and mix the cardamom powder once the halwa is cooked.
Tips-
Taking a wide cooking pan reduces cooking time.
Grate carrots into slightly bigger pieces so that they don't mash while cooking.
Nothing better than hot carrot halwa with cold vanilla ice-cream.
