Ingredients:
- 1 kg Carrots
- 2 tsp Cardamom Powder or 6-8 Cardamoms, peeled and powdered
- 5 cups of full-fat Milk
- 4 tsp Ghee
- 12-14 tsp Sugar
Steps to prepare Gajar (Carrot) Halwa:
- Rinse and grate the carrots with a box grater or in a food processor.
- In a heavy bottom kadhai or wok, add the grated carrots.
- Add in 5 cups of full-fat milk and turn on the burner.
- Mix carrots and milk on low-medium heat and keep mixing them at regular intervals. After 10-15 minutes, milk will start to froth and will eventually start reducing.
- After every couple of minutes stir the halwa and scarp off the milk solids from the kadhai’s edges. Let it keep cooking.
- Keep the carrot and milk cooking until the milk is reduced by 75%.
- Next, add 5 tsp of ghee even if some milk is still there in the halwa.
- Mix it well and now add 12-14 tsp of sugar, or as per your taste.
- Add 2 tsp of cardamom powder and mix it well.
- Continue to simmer it on a low flame and stir it often at regular intervals.
- When halwa has reduced to a pudding-like consistency, add the cut nuts and dry foods. Mix it well.
- Serve it hot and relish the delectable winter special Carrot Halwa.
