Gajar ka Murrabba

Begin the day on a sweeter note with these coral red beauties. Gajar ka murrabba is an age old method of preserving carrots in India and can be commonly seen in many households during the winters. It is usually had in breakfast with milk but it can be devoured anytime. Serve it as a dessert to your guests or as a health supplement to your growing kids. This preserve pleases everyone. My mom used to make Gajar ka murrabba at home and it would get finished even before maturing time that is usually two to three days. These gorgeous carrots dipped in sugar syrup can tempt anyone and melt any heart. I mean just look at these.
Other than looking gorgeous and inviting these red beauties prove to be a healthy and tasty addition to your diet.
Carrots are known for their numerous health benefits and the cooked ones are known to have more beta carotene, an antioxidant that can be converted to Vitamin A and improves bone and eye health.

Steps
- 1
In a deep pan boil water, add cardamoms and sugar. Bring it to a boil and keep the liquid on low heat.
Wash and peel the carrots and remove the crown. - 2
Now cut the carrots in 2-3 parts(lengthwise) depending on the length.
Then prick all the carrots with a fork.
Now add all the carrots to the pan and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes.
The carrots will release their juice and become tender.
- 3
Now take out all the carrots in a dish and keep it aside covered with a lid.
Let the remaining liquid (sugar syrup) simmer on a low flame for 10-12 minutes or until it gets a one string consistency. I use the drop method.Put a drop of sugar syrup on the back side of the spoon and if doesn't falls or slips and stays there that means you have got the perfect consistency.
Add lemon juice to avoid the formation of sugar crystals in the syrup.

Now add the carrots to the sugar syrup and bring to a boil.
Turn off the gas and leave the carrots to cool at the room temperature.
Then transfer to an airtight container and let it mature for 2-3 days(if possible 😉) and store in the refrigerator after that.
