Melt ghee in a pot with elachi powder.
Add carrots and mix with ghee.
Mix together full cream milk, cardamon, sugar, fresh cream, and milk powder and add slowly to carrots...(i whizzed with a stick blender here until carrots were a little more mushy)
2

Cook on medium heat until all the milk is absorbed, stirring continuously.
When almost dry, add the following:
3 tblsp ghee, tin nestle cream and ground almonds
Cook till dry... Keep stirring, taking care not to burn..
