Steps

40 Minutes

1

First rinse and peel carrots, grate the carrots with a box grater or in a food processor.
2

In a heavy bottom pan heat clarified butter, add all of the grated carrots.
3

Let it cook on low to medium flame for 10 minutes. Now add sugar and cook till it dissolves completely. Add milk and cardamom powder and cook for another 10-12 minutes. Continue to simmer on a low flame, stirring often.
4

When the halwa has reduced to a pudding-like consistency, add nuts and dry fruits of your choice and mix well. Once halwa mixture dries and milk evaporates completely and ghee is released from the sides, turn off the flame.

Serve gajar ka halwa warm from the pan. Refrigerate any leftovers, warming them before serving. Garnish with some chopped dry fruits while serving
