Carrot Halwa

           Its a perfect sweet recipe to celebrate a special occasion but i did this recipe for a evening snack.  I love the taste and colour of carrots . Carrots are full of beta-carotene and vitamin A, as well as soluble fiber so it is very easy to digest. It takes about 30 to 40 mts for the preparation with all the items readily available at home ...So here we go




Ingredients

Carrot, grated
3 cups
Milk
2 ½ cups
Sugar
¾ cup
Ghee
3–5 tbs

Elachi powder
1tsp
Cashew nuts
6-7
Salt
A pinch
 

 Method

  1. Take a heavy bottomed pan and add 2tablespoon ghee and  fry the grated carrots  till it turns pale in colour.(say 2-3 minutes) 
  2. Add the milk and bring it to boil in a medium flame. 
  3. Cook till the milk evaporates and the carrot gets cooked 
  4. When the milk is completely evaporated add the sugar and stir it for 10 mts   
  5. When the mixture starts thickening,add ghee,elachi powder,cashew nuts fried in ghee.Keep stirring for 5 more  minutes.
  6. When the halwa starts leaving the sides transfer it to a serving plate and garnish with your favorite nuts fried in ghee
