Carrot Halwa is a very delicious and sweet dessert. People in India especially like this dish in the winter time.

Ingredients

2 pound carrot – grated

8 cup whole milk

1/2 cup ghee or butter

2 tsp cardamom – crushed

2 tsp cashew pieces

1 tsp almond sliced

2-3 flakes of saffron (optional)

1 cup sugar or to taste

2 tsp golden raisins

Method

Take a big wide saucepan and pour the milk in the pan. Put it on the stove and keep the gas slow. Mix the carrot and saffron in the pan. Mix it with a spatula frequently to avoid burning at the bottom. Heat it for about an hour or until the milk evaporates completely and it becomes dry. Drying is very important for a good taste. Once dry, put the butter in the pan and mix with a spatula and keep heating for another about half an hour on slow gas. Add the sugar, mix for about 1 minutes, then shut off the gas.

To garnish, use cardamom, cashew, almond and golden raisins.

Your Halwa is ready to eat. Serve hot or at room temperature.
