Carrot Halwa Recipe

Carrot Halwa is one of the easiest, healthy and tasty desert of all time. My kid loves to have this.

I got this recipe from my friend 3 years back. Just thought of blogging the steps to prepare it.

Servings: 3 - 4 Persons
Cooking time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

3 Shredded Carrot
2 cups milk (either raw or boiled)
1/2 cup sugar
2 cardamom
2 tsp cashew nuts
1 tsp raisin
3 - 4 tsp ghee

Method:

In a flat surface pan, add the shredded carrot and milk together. Let the carrot boil in milk until it becomes tender. Let the whole cooking be done in medium flame.

In the mean time, heat 3 tsp ghee in another pan and fry the cashew nuts until it becomes golden brown. Then add the raisins. Once the raisins puff, remove from flame and keep it aside.

When the carrot becomes tender and the milk has drained in the pan, add sugar and cardamom to this.Sprinkle 1 tsp of ghee to the boiled carrot. 

Mix the carrot and sugar well to avoid burning of the pan in the bottom. When sugar is added, it oozes out more liquid when melted. In few minutes, the liquid in the pan will be drained. Now add the fried cashew nuts and raisins to the pan and mix it with the carrot. 

Once the water is drained and carrots are mixed together with milk and sugar, remove from flame.

The carrot halwa is now ready to be served.
